The cobas® CT/NG Test is an in vitro nucleic acid amplification test that utilizes the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and nucleic acid hybridization for the qualitative detection of Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) and/or Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) DNA to aid in the diagnosis of chlamydial and gonococcal disease. The test may be used with vaginal swab specimens self-collected in a clinical setting and male urine from both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals. Specimens to be tested should be collected in cobas® PCR Media.

Ancillary Collection Kits:

The cobas® PCR Female Swab Sample Kit is used to collect and transport self-collected vaginal swab specimens in a clinical setting. The cobas® PCR Media serves as a nucleic acid stabilizing transport and storage medium for gynecological specimens. Use this collection kit only with the cobas® CT/NG Test. NOTE: This collection kit should not be used for collection of alternative gynecological specimens.

The cobas® PCR Urine Sample Kit is used to collect and transport male urine specimens. The cobas® PCR Media serves as a nucleic acid stabilizing transport and storage medium for urine specimens. Use this collection kit only with the cobas® CT/NG Test. NOTE: This collection kit should not be used for collection of female urine specimens.

The cobas® CT/NG v2.0 Test is an automated, in vitro nucleic acid amplification test for the qualitative detection of Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) and/or Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) DNA in urogenital specimens. The Test utilizes the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) for the detection of Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae DNA in male and female urine, self-collected vaginal swab specimens (collected in a clinical setting), clinician-collected vaginal swab specimens, and endocervical swab specimens, all collected in cobas® PCR Media (Roche Molecular Systems, Inc.), and cervical specimens collected in PreservCyt® solution. This test is intended as an aid in the diagnosis of chlamydial and gonococcal disease in both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals.

Ancillary Collection Kits

The cobas® PCR Female Swab Sample Kit is used to collect and transport endocervical and vaginal swab specimens. The cobas® PCR Media serves as a nucleic acid stabilizing transport and storage medium for gynecological specimens. Use this collection kit only with either the cobas® CT/NG Test or the cobas® CT/NG v2.0 Test.

The cobas® PCR Urine Sample Kit is used to collect and transport urine specimens. The cobas® PCR Media serves as a nucleic acid stabilizing transport and storage medium for urine specimens. Use this collection kit only with either the cobas® CT/NG Test or the cobas® CT/NG v2.0 Test.
