Abstract
Anyplex STI-7 is a new molecular kit detecting seven sexually transmitted pathogens. Among 202 subjects screened for genital infection, 143 (70.4%) were diagnosed with at least one pathogen, in concordance with reference methods. In addition, it demonstrated co-infections, such as that of Ureaplasma parvum and Chlamydia trachomatis in young women.Keywords
