Multicenter Clinical Evaluation of the Automated Aries Bordetella Assay
Year: 2018
Type: article
Abstract: Molecular methods offer superior sensitivity and specificity and reduce testing turnaround time from days to hours for detection of Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis . In this study, we evaluated the performance of the automated PCR-based Aries Bordetella Assay, which detects both B. pertussis and B. parapertussis directly from nasopharyngeal swab specimens.
