Vaginitis is an irritation of the vulva or vagina. It is very common. Many women think any irritation of the vagina or vulva is caused by a yeast infection. Yeast infection is one cause of vaginitis.
The ARIESÂ® Group A Strep Assay is a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based qualitative in vitro diagnostic test for the direct detection of Streptococcus pyogenes (Group A Î²-hemolytic Streptococcus) in throat swab specimens from patients with signs and symptoms of pharyngitis.
1 In silico PCR (digital PCR, virtual PCR, electronic PCR, e-PCR) refers to computational tools used to calculate theoretical polymerase chain reaction results using a given set of primers (probes) to amplify DNA sequences from a sequenced genome or transcriptome.n the second step, the temperature is lowered and the two DNA strands become templates for DNA polymerase to selectively amplify the target DNA. The selectivity of PCR results from the use of primers that are complementary to the DNA region targeted for amplification under specific thermal cycling conditions.
