Quantitative Molecular Methods for Infectious Diseases; Approved Guideline - Second Edition
Scope/Abstract
This document provides guidance for the development and use of quantitative molecular methods, such as nucleic acid probes and nucleic acid amplification techniques of the target sequences specific to particular microorganisms, and presents recommendations for quality assurance, proficiency testing, and interpretation of results.

Issues specific to the quantification of nucleic acid in diagnostic testing and monitoring, particularly in viral diseases, include an update on technologies used in molecular quantification; specimen handling and preparation; standards, calibrators, and reference materials; analytical and clinical verification/validation; reporting and interpreting results; clinical utility; and recommendations for manufacturers and clinical laboratories.
