ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT We compared detection of Chlamydia trachomatis , Neisseria gonorrhoeae , and Trichomonas vaginalis using dry and wet self-collected samples using brushes among females who engage in sex work in Mombasa, Kenya. Detection of T. vaginalis and N. gonorrhoeae in dry and wet samples was similar, but C. trachomatis detection in dry samples appeared lower.
