Mycoplasma Infection

Mycoplasma is a type of prokaryotic microorganism that can grow independently between bacteria and viruses. It mainly exists in the genitourinary tract and gonads, and often causes genitourinary tract inflammation. At present, it has been confirmed that Mycoplasma hominis, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Mycoplasma fermentum, Mycoplasma genitalium, and so on, are pathogenic to the human urogenital tract. Ureaplasma urealyticum and Mycoplasma hominis have the highest infection rates. This type of mycoplasma can cause infections in the human genitourinary system and is a common pathogen of non-gonococcal urethritis. It can cause epididymitis, salpingitis, pelvic inflammatory, vaginitis, infertility, etc. Mycoplasma infection is related to sexual activity, and its main transmission routes are sexual contact and mother-to-child transmission.

Diagnosis of Mycoplasma Infection

The confirmation of mycoplasma infection depends on laboratory diagnosis. Commonly used are mycoplasma culture, specific antibody detection, metabolic inhibition test, DNA probe and PCR technology. Among them, the method of mycoplasma culture is the most reliable and the PCR technology is the most sensitive. Male patients can take secretions from the genitourinary tract, prostate fluid, semen, etc., and quantitative culture of the first and middle urine. In addition to cervical and vaginal swabs for women, amniotic fluid and urethral secretions can also be used for testing. To detect specific antibodies, blood samples can be collected.

Advantages of Our Products

Ureaplasma urealyticum and Mycoplasma hominis are the causes of non-chlamydia and non-gonococcal urethritis. At present, two biological variants, Ureaplasma Urealyticum and Ureaplasma parvum, have been defined as separate species and need to be distinguished by molecular techniques such as PCR. Creative Biogene's test kit uses the PCR method, which can accurately identify the type of mycoplasma infection in a short time. Our products are the best choice for your related research.

Creative Biogene has a professional team of experts who developed quality Mycoplasma infection diagnostic products.
