The CoxA16/EV71/EV-U Real Time PCR Kit is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) reagent replying on fluorescent PCR technology and aiming at the detection of coxsackievirus A16 (CoxA16), enterovirus 71 (EV71) and universal enteroviruses (EV-U) nucleic acids in human throat swab samples of human infants and children, the CoxA16 and EV71 can be distinguished simultaneously. Better performance makes the result more accurate Kid-friendly HFMD testing using throat swab sample 3-in-1 Multiplex RT-PC
Hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD) is an acute infectious disease caused by enteroviruses. It is most common in preschoolers, especially those under three years old. It is mainly transmitted through close contact with the infected and subclinically infected individuals and gets into the body through the respiratory tract and gastrointestinal tract. The most common symptoms of the disease include macules, papules and herpes on hands, feet, and mouth. A small number of patients may suffer from m
E. coli is a gram-negative microorganism that can be an innocuous resident of the gastrointestinal tract, but it also has the pathogenic capacity to cause enteric disease, and extraintestinal diseases, such as urinary tract infections (UTIs) and sepsis/meningitis. Pathogenic variants of E. coli (pathovars or pathotypes) cause much morbidity and mortality worldwide due to they have low infectious doses and are transmitted through ubiquitous mediums, including food and water.

Noroviruses are common and highly contagious gastrointestinal viruses. Norovirus illness is characterized by projectile vomiting, non-bloody diarrhea, nausea, abdominal cramps, and low-grade fever. Noroviruses can infect humans via multiple routes, including the oral route, transmitted through contact with fecal matter or aerosolized vomitus from infected people, as well as contaminated surfaces, food, or water. The BioPerfectus Norovirus Real Time PCR Kit is intended for the qualitative de
Rotavirus has a characteristic wheel-like appearance. The name rotavirus is derived from the Latin word rota, meaning wheel. Rotaviruses are non-enveloped, possess a triple-layered capsid, and have a segmented RNA genome. The virus is stable in the environment. Rotavirus spreads easily among infants and young children. The virus can cause severe watery diarrhea, vomiting, fever, and abdominal pain. Children who get rotavirus disease can become dehydrated and may need to be hospitalized. The
Vibrio cholerae is a comma-shaped, Gram-negative bacterium. It is the cause of cholera in humans, which affects the upper small intestine. Transmission of the disease is mainly through contaminated food or water. Human subjects affected by cholera exhibit severe watery diarrhea and vomiting, caused by the cholera toxin produced by the bacterium. Many cases of cholera are life-threatening, as diarrhea and associated vomiting can lead to rapid dehydration and electrolyte loss. Occasional outbrea
Coxsackieviruses belong to the Picornaviridae family, genus Enterovirus, and a group of human enteroviruses. They are positive-sense single-stranded RNA viruses protected by an icosahedral capsid exclusively constituted of proteins. Divided into two subgroups A and B: coxsackievirus A with 23 serotypes 1-24 (23 is missing) and coxsackievirus B with six serotypes 1-6. Hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) is an acute infectious disease caused by an enterovirus, mostly occurs in preschool child

Clostridioides difficile is a gram-positive, spore-forming bacillus. It is the most common infectious cause of nosocomial diarrhea. Clostridioides difficile often causes prolonged hospitalization of patients infected with the bacterium and it is the common culprit of epidemic outbreak in large hospitals. Patients infected with Clostridioides difficile may be asymptomatic or suffer mild diarrhea and even serious pseudomembranous colitis. The BioPerfectus Clostridioides difficile Real Time P
