Abstract

AIM To investigate the prevalence of mycoplasma genitalium (Mg) in Xi'an area. METHODS Samples of 274 cases of urogenital infection were collected from sexual transmitted disease (STD) clinics in Xi'an, and were firstly detected by PCR with mixed primers specific to neisseria gonorrhoeae, chlamydia trachomatis and mycoplasma. Samples with a positive amplification of mycoplasma were further detected by PCR with Mg specific primers. RESULTS Thirty samples were positive of mycoplasma, of which 10 were positive of Mg. CONCLUSION Mg infection of urogenital tract is one of the main parts of mycoplasma infection in Xi'an area.
