The Becton Dickinson BDProbeTec ET System is a new semiautomated system using strand displacement amplification technology that simultaneously amplifies and detects Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae DNA. The strand displacement amplification products are hybridized with a fluorescent detector probe and are captured by a chemiluminescent assay in a microwell format. An amplification control is also included to monitor assay inhibition. This study evaluated the performance of the BDProbTec ET system in detecting C trachomatis and N gonorrhoeae in male and female urine specimens, calculated its ability to process large volumes of specimens, and determined the inhibition rate.
