Summary
The primary purpose of this clinical investigation is to verify the performance of the GenePOC GBS Assay on the GenePOC Instrument. This will be achieved by comparing the Assay to the a Culture, a conventional method for detection of Streptococcus agalactiae in vaginal/rectal swab specimens from antepartum women.
