Salmonella & Shigella Real Time PCR Kit

The Salmonella & Shigella Real Time PCR Kit is an in vitro diagnostic salmonella test kit and shigella test kit for the qualitative detection of Salmonella and Shigella nucleic acids in human stool samples. This combined PCR assay supports laboratory evaluation of gastrointestinal infections and aids in the diagnosis of Salmonella infection and shigellosis.

Salmonella is a kind of Gram-negative intestinal bacteria which is widely distributed in nature and can cause disease to people and animals and has a great harm. The bacteria consists of 5 subgenera, serotypes are more complex, so far more than 2200 have been found, the common salmonella typhimurium, salmonella cholerae, salmonella enteritis, can cause human gastroenteritis, typhoid fever, sepsis and other symptoms. Shigella is a group of highly infectious Gram-negative intestinal pathogens, commonly known as dysentery bacili. Infectious diarrhoeal diseases caused by shigella flexneri are the most common in developing countries.

An internal control monitors the testing process, and the kit is compatible with multiple mainstream real-time PCR instruments.

• Two-pathogen detection: Qualitatively detects Salmonella and Shigella nucleic acids in one stool-testing workflow.

• Internal process control: Includes an internal control to monitor the entire testing process.

• Instrument flexibility: Compatible with multiple mainstream real-time PCR instruments.

• Streamlined interpretation: Supports automatic result interpretation on the Bioperfectus STC real-time PCR system.

This Salmonella and Shigella PCR kit is intended for professional testing of human stool specimens. Applications include:

• Gastrointestinal infection testing: Qualitative detection when Salmonella or Shigella infection is considered in the clinical workup.
• Human stool molecular analysis: Real-time PCR testing of stool specimens in clinical microbiology laboratories.
• Combined Salmonella/Shigella workflow: Use where a single assay covering both pathogens can reduce separate test setup, within the stated intended use.
