What it measures
- Trichomonas vaginalis DNA — Detects the parasite's genetic material, which is the most sensitive way to find an infection.
- Trichomonas vaginalis RNA — Looks for a piece of the parasite's genetic code and can signal an active infection.
- Trichomonas vaginalis antigen — Checks for proteins from the parasite that the immune system may react to.
- Specimen adequacy — Confirms the sample was collected properly so the result can be trusted.
Preparation

Results and what they mean
