Six Respiratory Pathogens Multiplex Nucleic Acid Diagnostic Kit
Brief
Lower respiratory infections (LRP) remained the world’s most deadly communicable disease, ranked as the 4th leading cause of death. In 2019 it claimed 2.6 million lives. Diseases of the lower respiratory tract include acute tracheitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, chronic bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bronchiectasis, etc. They are caused by microbial infections such as viruses, bacteria, mycoplasma, chlamydia and legionella.
Bacteria are the main pathogens of lower respiratory tract infections, with a wide variety of pathogens and complex clinical presentations. Due to the long detection period and low positive detection rate of traditional pathogenic tests, over 62% of adults with community-acquired pneumonia have no pathogenic basis. Failure to identify the cause quickly can delay treatment, exacerbate the disease and lead to death, and increase the development of antibiotic resistance.
Features
- Highly efficient identification and rapid diagnosis: Six common bacteria of lower respiratory tract infections can be detected in one tube; a batch of 94 sample tests can finish in 100 minutes.
- Accurate and reliable, high detection rate: sensitive and specific, unaffected by antibacterial drugs, full internal control monitoring to avoid false negatives, UDG enzyme + dUTP anti- contamination measures to reduce false positives.
- Easy to operate and adaptable: automatic instruments are available, and the results can be intelligently analyzed by conventional fluorescent PCR instruments to meet the needs of medical laboratories , clinical Institutions, emergency and primary care etc.
