LaboratoryEscherichia coli enteroaggregative pAA plasmid aggR+aatA genes [Presence] in Stool by NAA with non-probe detection
Definition
This assay detects the Escherichia coli enteroaggregative pAA plasmid aggR and aatA genes using PCR and melt curve analysis. This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, BioFire's FilmArray Gastrointestinal panel, which is intended for the detection and identification of nucleic acids from multiple bacteria, viruses, and parasites directly from stool samples from individuals with signs and/or symptoms of gastrointestinal infection.
