• The Affirm™ VPIII Microbial Identification Test is a DNA probe test intended for use in the detection and identification of Candida species, Gardnerella vaginalis and Trichomonas vaginalis nucleic acid in vaginal fluid specimens
• The test uses two distinct single-stranded nucleic acid probes for each organism, a capture probe and a color development probe, that are complementary to unique genetic sequences of the target organisms
• The capture probes are immobilized on a bead embedded in a Probe Analysis Card (PAC), which contains a separate bead for each target organism
• The color development probes are contained in a multi-well Reagent Cassette (RC)
• Kit includes: 120 Probe Analysis Cards (PAC), 120 Reagent Cassettes (RC), 12 mL Substrate Solution, 48 mL Lysis Solution, 72 mL Buffer Solution, 120 Filter Tips
• Individually packaged cards, wrapped in an absorbent paper towel moistened with a solution containing sodium azide (0.1%, w/v) as a preservative
• Each PAC contains the following five beads: Negative Control, Trichomonas, Gardnerella, Candida, and Positive Control
