Panels that include this biomarker

Sexually-Transmitted Infections (STIs) Genital Lesion Panel 38286
6 analytes · Swab · Fasting not stated
Method and collection
Method
Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction
Collection
Swab any visible lesions. Withdraw the swab without touching the skin. Immediately place the swab into the Aptima® Multitest Transport Tube (orange label) so that the tip of the swab is visible below the tube label. Carefully break the swab shaft at the score line against the side of the tube and discard the top portion of the swab shaft. Tightly screw the cap onto the tube.

Method and collection
Method
See individual tests
Preparation
Male urine: Patient should not have urinated within one hour prior to collection
Collection
Vaginal swabs: Follow instructions in the Aptima Vaginal Swab Collection Kit or Multitest Collection Kit (orange label). Male urethral swabs: Follow instructions in the Aptima Unisex Swab Specimen Collection Kit (white label). Swab specimen collection kit (orange or white label). Excess mucus should be removed prior to sampling. Male urine: Direct patient to provide a first-catch urine (a maximum of 20-30 mL of the initial urine stream) into a urine collection cup free of any preservatives. 2 mL of urine specimen must be transferred into the Aptima urine specimen transport within 24 hours of collection and before being assayed. Use the tube provided in the urine specimen collection kit. The fluid (urine plus transport media) level in the urine transport tube must fall within the clear pane on the tube label.

Verify these ranges and sources

We compile this page from named laboratory catalogs, guidelines and studies. Labs calculate reference intervals from the people they test, for one assay method and one population group, so an interval describes that population rather than an optimal target.
