The ARIES® GBS Assay is a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based qualitative in vitro diagnostic test designed to detect Group B Streptococcus (GBS) nucleic acid from Lim Broth enriched vaginal-rectal specimen swabs obtained from pregnant women.

NeuMoDx GBS Test Strip

The illumigene Group B Streptococcus (GBS) assay, performed on the illumipro-10, is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic for the detection of Streptococcus agalactiae in enriched cultures obtained from vaginal/rectal swab specimens from antepartum women. Enriched cultures are obtained by 18-24 hour incubation of vaginal/rectal swab specimens in selective broth medium, either Lim Broth, TransVag Broth or Carrot Broth.The illumigene GBS assay utilizes loop-mediated isothermal DNA amplification (LAMP) technology to detect Streptococcus agalactiae by targeting a segment of the Streptococcus agalactiae genome. Results from the illumigene GBS assay can be used as an aid in establishing the GBS colonization status of antepartum women. This assay does not diagnose or monitor treatment for GBS infections.

The Alethia GBS External Control Kit contains Positive and Negative Control Reagents for use with the Alethia Group B Streptococcus test kit. External controls are used as part of a routine quality control program.

The GenePOC™ GBS LB assay performed on the revogene™ instrument is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic test designed to detect Group B Streptococcus (GBS) DNA from 18-24 hour LIM broth enrichments of vaginal/rectal specimen swabs obtained from pregnant women. The GenePOC GBS LB assay utilizes automated sample processing and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect a cfb gene sequence specific to the Streptococcus agalactiae genome.The GenePOC GBS LB assay is indicated for the identification of antepartum GBS colonization and does not provide susceptibility results. It is not intended to diagnose or monitor treatment of GBS infection. Culture isolates are needed for performing susceptibility testing as recommended for penicillin-allergic women..
