Abstract : Prevalence of the 2 ureaplasma biovars was estimated in patients with genital tract infections by polymerase chain reaction targeting the urease and multiple-banded antigen gene. Ureaplasma was more frequently isolated in symptomatic than asymptomatic subjects (48% versus 22%) (P = 0.001). Biovar 1 was predominant; however, there was no difference in the distribution of the 2 biovars between the symptomatic and asymptomatic subjects.
