Anaplasma phagocytophilum is an obligate gram-negative, intracellular bacterium that causes an acute febrile illness known as anaplasmosis or human granulocytic anaplasmosis (HGA). The organism is genetically related to rickettsia and is transmitted by Ixodes scapularis in the northeast United States and by Ixodes pacificus in California. The vector also transmits other organisms responsible for diseases such as Lyme, babesiosis, ehrlichioses and Powassan encephalitis. Anaplasmosis was formerly named human granulocytic ehrlichiosis (HGE). Cases of anaplasmosis have been identified worldwide.

The BioPerfectus Anaplasma Phagocytophilum Real Time PCR Kit is an in vitro diagnostic test, based on real-time PCR technology, for the detection of DNA from Anaplasma Phagocytophilum (msp2 gene). Specimens can be obtained from human serum or plasma.
