The VIASURE E. coli Typing Real Time PCR Detection Kit is a multiplex molecular assay designed for the rapid, specific detection and differentiation of major pathogenic Escherichia coli (E. coli) pathotypes:
- Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC)
- Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC)
- Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC)
- Enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC)
- Enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC)/Shigella
This kit enables detection directly from human stool specimens through Real-Time PCR using specific primers and fluorescent probes. It includes internal controls for monitoring inhibition and ensures reliable results across high-throughput workflows. Ideal for outbreak investigation, clinical research, and public health surveillance.
Key Features & Benefits
- ✅ Multiplex Detection – Simultaneous identification of multiple E. coli pathotypes
- ✅ Ready-to-Use Format – Lyophilized 8-well strips reduce setup time and minimize pipetting error
- ✅ Internal Controls Included – Ensures result validity and detects PCR inhibition
- ✅ Room Temperature Storage – Simplifies shipping and storage logistics
- ✅ Rapid Turnaround Time – Results within hours for timely decision-making
- ✅ High Sensitivity & Specificity – Based on validated real-time PCR technology
- ✅ Positive & Negative Controls Supplied – Essential for result interpretation
- ✅ Compatible with Standard Thermocyclers – Works with most qPCR platforms
Applications
- Detection and typing of diarrheagenic E. coli in stool samples
