For <i>Chlamydia trachomatis</i> (CT) and <i>Neisseria gonorrhoeae</i> (NG), genital infections have classically been the focus for remote collection options. However, infections may go undiagnosed if sampling is limited to urogenital sites because some individuals only participate in oral and/or anal intercourse. Here we evaluated samples for CT/NG detection after several pre-analytical collection challenges. A paired provider to self-collection validation was performed on rectal [<i>n</i> = 162; 22 + for CT and 9 + for NG by provider-collected (PC)] and throat (<i>N</i> = 158; 2 + for CT and 11 + for NG by provider-collected) swabs. The positive percent agreement for CT and NG ranged from 90.9% to 100%. The discrepancies were more often positive on self-collected (SC) (<i>n</i> = 9 SC+/PC-; <i>n</i> = 1 PC+/SC-; <i>n</i> = 1 PC+/SC Equiv.; <i>n</i> = 2 PC-/SC Equiv.). An empirical limit of detection (LoD) lower than the manufacturer's claim (0.031 vs 2.5 IFU/mL for CT and 0.063 vs 124.8 CFU/ml for NG, respectively) was used to challenge additional variables. Common hand contaminants, including soap, hand sanitizer, lotion, and sunscreen were added to known positive (3× empirical LoD) or negative samples and did not influence detection. Samples at 2× and 10× the empirical LoD were challenged with extreme temperature cycling and extended room temperature storage. Detection was not affected by these conditions. These results indicate that remote self-collection is an appropriate method of sample acquisition for detecting extragenital CT/NG infections.

Furthermore, <i>K. oxytoca</i> previously described in studies is rather a species complex (KoSC) than a single species comprising at least six closely related species that are not easily differentiated by standard typing methods. To reach a discriminatory power high enough to identify and resolve clusters within these species, whole genome sequencing is necessary. The resolution is achievable with core genome multilocus sequence typing (cgMLST) extending typing of a few housekeeping genes to thousands of core genome genes. CgMLST is highly standardized and provides a nomenclature enabling cross laboratory reproducibility and data exchange for routine diagnostics. Here, we established a cgMLST scheme not only capable of resolving the KoSC species but also producing reliable and consistent results for published outbreaks. Our cgMLST scheme consists of 2,536 core genome and 2,693 accessory genome targets, with a percentage of good cgMLST targets of 98.31% in 880 KoSC genomes downloaded from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). We also validated resistance markers against known resistance gene patterns and successfully linked genetic results to phenotypically confirmed toxic strains carrying the <i>til</i> gene cluster.
