Abstract:

Disclosed include compositions, kits and methods for nucleic acid-based detection and identification of vaginal disorders, for example, vulvovaginal candidiasis, trichomoniasis and/or bacterial vaginosis. The compositions, kits and methods can be used for obtaining robust diagnostic testing performance against interfering substances, for example, gels present in clinical vaginal-swab samples.
