NAAT
A NAAT (nucleic acid amplification test) detects the genetic material of an organism, and is the laboratory method public-health bodies like the CDC reference for detecting infections such as chlamydia and gonorrhea. When an at-home STD service describes its lab methods, NAAT-based testing is the modern standard for those infections. What method a service uses for each panel item is published information worth reading.
