Objective To explore the performance verification of the Shengxiang automatic NAT system for HBV DNA, HCV RNA and HIV RNA-1 using PCR-fluorescence in the laboratories of blood stations, in order to meet the requirements of T/CSBT and ensure the quality of nucleic acid detection. Methods Samples used in the external quality assessment (EQA) of National Center for Clinical Laboratories of the year 2022 were taken to verify the concordance. The standard materials of HBV DNA, HCV RNA and HIV RNA-1 were used to verify the analytical sensitivity, endogenous interfering substances, repeatability, anti-cross contamination ability and stability. Results The concordance rate of 20 EQA samples was 100%. The analytical sensitivity of HBV DNA, HCV RNA and HIV RNA-1 were all reactive and met T/CSBT. The yielding of HBV DNA, HCV RNA and HIV RNA-1 was affected little with lipemia at 3g/L and hemolysis at 4g/L. The coefficients of variation(CV) of intra-assay and inter-assay which met T/CSBT were all less than 5%, and the intra-assay variation coefficient was less than the inter-assay variation coefficient. The test results of 40 negative samples tested for cross contamination resistance were 100% negative, and 40 positive samples of HBV with 10 000 IU/mL were 100% positive. The stability verification results showed that the detection rate of weak positive samples was 100%. The coefficient of variation of the test results of the reagent after 1 and 5 freeze-thaw cycles were less than 5%,and the difference between the detection Ct value of reagent underwent once freeze-thaw and five-time freeze-thaw was not statistically significant. Conclusion The analytical sensitivity,endogenous interfering substances, repeatability,anti-cross contamination ability,stability and the compliance rate of domestic Shengxiang Gene automatic NAT system and supporting reagents by PCR-fluorescence method all meet T/CSBT, so it can be used for nucleic acid detection in blood screening in blood station laboratory.
