Genomic screening for infectious agents using nucleic acid amplification testing can be performed with several nucleic acid amplification techniques. Polymerase chain reaction, ligase chain reaction, nucleic acid sequence-based amplification, and transcription-mediated amplification are genomic amplification techniques that use different approaches to achieve the in vitro amplification of nucleic acids. Nucleic acid sequence-based amplification and transcription-mediated amplification are used to amplify RNA targets (eg, HCV and HIV), whereas polymerase chain reaction and ligase chain reaction need DNA or cDNA sequences as targets and therefore require a reverse transcription step for the amplification of RNA viruses.

All of these techniques directly detect the presence of infectious microorganisms in donor blood by amplifying the nucleic acid sequences specific to the microorganism. Use of these techniques provides a much higher level of sensitivity and specificity than routine testing methods currently provide. Despite the current diligent EIA screening of donor blood for the detection of antigens and antibodies, there still remains a residual risk of post transfusion infection from HIV or hepatitis viruses acquired from donors donating in the early window (or latent) period of infection. The power of nucleic acid amplification testing is its ability to detect the presence of infection by directly testing for viral genomic nucleic acids rather than by indirectly testing for the presence of antibodies.
