[Refinement and study of the performance of a "Mycoplasma UG" kit for the research on urogenital Mycoplasmas].
The pathogenic role of genital Mycoplasmas is no more disputably. The diagnosis is based on the culture which may present some technical difficulties. The present study consist in a perfecting of a miniaturised system called "Mycoplasma UG" for the research, identification and titration of genital Mycoplasmas. The performance of the kit is studied with an important number of different types samples by comparison with the commercial kit "Mycoplasma Duo" and the classic reference method. The results obtained are satisfactory and constitute an important element in favour of a more advanced validation before the kit's trading.
