What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • rapid diagnostic test (multiplex PCR filmArray)Diagnostic test

    novel diagnostic platform, the "FilmArray®", which combines automated sample preparation, nucleic acid extraction and PCR-based detection of 31 separate targets from a single unprocessed sample in one hour. It combines nesting and multiplexing of the PCR (referred to here as nested multiplex or "nmPCR") together with DNA melting curve analysis.
