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 outbreaks and pandemics caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae indicate that cholera is still a global threat to public health.

The Bioperfectus Vibrio Cholerae Real Time PCR Kit is an in vitro diagnostic test, based on real-time PCR technology, for the detection of DNA from Vibrio Cholerae O1, Vibrio Cholerae O139 and Vibrio Cholerae. Specimens can be obtained from human stool.
