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

COVID-19 Coronavirus and Influenza A/B virus Real Time PCR Kit is an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) reagent replying on fluorescent PCR technology and aiming at qualitatively detection and differentiation of RNA from SARS-CoV-2, influenza A virus, and/or influenza B virus from upper and lower respiratory tract samples. Upper and lower respiratory tract samples include throat swab and sputum. Multiplex real-time PCR detect different target specific for SARS-CoV-2, Flu A and Flu B Internal cont

Sapovirus is a distinct genus within the family Caliciviridae; these viruses cause sporadic cases and outbreaks of gastroenteritis in humans worldwide. Sapovirus has a typical "Star of David" configuration by electron microscopic examination. The prototype sapovirus is the Sapporo virus (Hu/SaV/Sapporo virus/1977/JP). Sapovirus is divided into 5 genogroups, among which only genogroups I, II, IV, and V are known to infect humans. The BioPerfectus Sapovirus Real Time PCR Kit is an in vitro di

In recent years, outbreaks of novel influenza A virus subtypes have occurred from time to time. For example, the novel influenza A H1N1 virus detected in Mexico in 2009 resulted in a global influenza pandemic. Novel influenza A H1N1 virus (2009) contains gene segments from an avian virus, a swine influenza virus, and a human seasonal influenza virus, leading to significant antigenic changes and causing higher morbidity and mortality. The current laboratory detection methods include virus isola

Rickettsia typhi is a small, aerobic, obligate intracellular, rod shaped gram negative bacterium. It belongs to the typhus group of the Rickettsia genus, along with R. prowazekii. As with all rickettsial organisms, R. typhi is a zoonotic agent that causes the disease murine typhus, displaying non-specific mild symptoms of fevers, headaches, pains and rashes. There are two cycles of R. typhi transmission from animal reservoirs containing R. typhi to humans: a classic rat-flea-rat cycle that is

Astroviruses are a type of virus that causes diarrheal illness (gastroenteritis). Infants and young children are most likely to have diarrhea caused by astroviruses, but the infection also occurs in older people and those with a compromised immune system. While mild diarrhea is the main symptom astroviruses cause, a person who gets sick may also have other common symptoms of gastroenteritis, including: Nausea, Vomiting, Stomach ache, Loss of appetite, Body aches, Fever. The BioPerfectus As

Influenza is an acute respiratory infectious disease caused by influenza viruses, which is mainly transmitted through airborne droplets. Influenza viruses are divided into types A, B, and C based on the differences in the antigenicity of nucleoprotein. Influenza B virus is a single-stranded RNA virus in the family Orthomyxoviridae. It can be classified into Victoria and Yamagata lineages based on the differences in antigenicity and gene specificity, and is the pathogen of influenza B, which is

Francisella tularensis is a pathogenic species of Gram-negative coccobacillus, an aerobic bacterium. It is nonspore-forming, nonmotile, and the causative agent of tularemia, the pneumonic form of which is often lethal without treatment. It is a fastidious, facultative intracellular bacterium, which requires cysteine for growth. Due to its low infectious dose, ease of spread by aerosol, and high virulence, F. tularensis is classified as a Tier 1 Select Agent by the U.S. government. When found i

The BioPerfectus Influenza Virus Subtype N6 Real Time PCR Kit is an in vitro diagnostic test, based on real-time PCR technology, for the detection of Influenza Virus Subtype N6 RNA. Samples can be obtained from human throat swabs and sputum. Internal control ensures that the whole process reliably Auto interpretation result with STC real-time PCR system Compatible with multiple mainstream PCR instrument LoD 5 copies/reaction Assay Runtime 79 minutes

Human adenoviruses (EAds) are classified into 47 serotypes and six subgenera (A-F) with different tropisms. In recent years adenovirus type 40 (Ad40) and 41 (Ad41) of subgenus F have been shown to be causative agents in enteric infections, which is second in importance only to rotaviruses as a cause of infantile gastroenteritis. Infection with EAds occurs worldwide and has been associated with 4-17% of cases of diarrhoea in children. Ad40 and Ad41 primarily affect young children less than 2 ye
