The Great Basin Portrait™ GBS Assay, performed on the PA500 Portrait™ Analyzer System, is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic test (IVD) for the detection of Group B Streptococcus (GBS) DNA from vaginal/rectal swabs from antepartum women, following enrichment in LIM Broth for 18 - 29 hours. The assay utilizes automated sample preparation and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to amplify a cfb gene sequence specific to the Streptococcus agalactiae (GBS) genome which is detected by hybridization probes immobilized on a silica chip surface.
Results from the Portrait™ GBS Assay can be used as an aid in determining colonization status in antepartum women. The Portrait™ GBS Assay does not provide susceptibility results. Cultured isolates are needed for performing susceptibility testing as recommended for penicillin-allergic women.
The Portrait™ GBS Assay is intended for use in clinical laboratory, hospital laboratory, and reference laboratory settings. The Portrait™ GBS Assay is not intended for point of care use.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
