Workflow and Throughput of Commercial Assays to Detect Mycoplasma genitalium and Macrolide Resistance–Mediating Mutations

Aptima Mycoplasma genitalium (MG) required the shortest and STD6 the longest time to detect MG in clinical samples. ResistancePlus MG detected MG and macrolide resistance–mediating mutations simultaneously. Times were influenced by specimen numbers. M. genitalium positives from the other 2 assays required increased time for macrolide resistance–mediating mutation sequencing.
