PCR “CHECKUP” IN MALE IN THE SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS. TREND WATCHING

Abstract

Most sexually transmitted infections (STIs) do not cause significant problems in the carrier, as a result the infection is transmitted easily to a sexual partner and may remain unrecognized with serious consequences for male reproductive health. Currently, the rapidest and most accurate method of STIs diagnosis is a molecular genetic analyses (MGA) for detection of DNA pathogens. The results of MGA do not depend on the cultural properties and morphological characteristics of the microorganism. Non-cultural methods based on a multiplex polymerase chain reaction in real time (PCR-RT) are becoming as a trend in modern laboratory medicine for identifying genes associated with antibiotic resistance. his approach can reduce turnaround time (ТАТ) for the male health benefit in time.
