LaboratoryLactobacillus crispatus+jensenii + Gardnerella vaginalis + Atopobium vaginae + Bacterial Vaginosis Associated Bacteria-2 + Megasphaera sp type 1 DNA [Presence] in Vaginal fluid by NAA with probe detection
Definition
This term is used for assays that detect the presence of bacterial vaginosis by comparing the concentrations of Lactobacillus species and the other organisms detected by the assay. A lower relative concentration of Lactobacillus species is indicative of bacterial vaginosis.
