The Virplex® Clostridium difficile Toxins RealTime PCR Kit is a multiplex real-time RT-PCR assay designed for the detection of Clostridium difficile nucleic acids in human stool samples. The kit enables simultaneous detection of toxin A (tcdA), toxin B (tcdB), and the binary toxin (cdtA/cdtB) in a single reaction tube, providing laboratories with a comprehensive molecular diagnostic solution for Clostridioides difficile infections (CDI).
Key Features
- 4-target multiplex PCR – detects C. difficile plus toxins A, B, and binary toxin in a single reaction.
- Internal control – monitors amplification setup, inhibitor carry-over, and assay reliability.
- Compatible with 4-channel qPCR systems – validated for clinical laboratory workflows.
- Fast turnaround – results in under 2 hours.
- Lyophilized reagents – master mix and positive control included, ensuring stability and reducing cold chain requirements.
- Pre-dispensed formats – available as divisible strip plates or tubes for ease of use.
- CE-IVDR certified – compliant with European diagnostic regulations.
Applications
- Molecular detection of Clostridioides difficile infections (CDI).
- Differential diagnosis of CDI through toxin gene identification.
- Surveillance and outbreak monitoring of toxigenic C. difficile strains.
- Clinical microbiology testing of stool samples.
- Quality assurance in molecular diagnostics laboratories.
