Streptococcus pneumoniae DNA [Presence] in Cerebral spinal fluid by NAA with non-probe detection

S pneum DNA CSF Ql NAA+n-prb

Definition

This assay detects the presence of nucleic acid sequences from the Streptococcus pneumoniae DNA in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) using PCR and non-probe based detection methods, such as melt curve analysis. This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, BioFire's FilmArray Meningitis/Encephalitis Panel, which is intended for the detection and identification of nucleic acids from multiple bacteria, viruses, and yeast directly from CSF obtained via lumbar puncture from individuals with signs and/or symptoms of meningitis and/or encephalitis.
