MLP - Multiplex Urinary Tract Infection Assay, 13 pathogen assay, 96 well, 6 panels per plate (Breakaway Plates)

Product Description

The Urinary Tract Lite Microbiota Simplicity PanelTM is an in-vitro multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay for the qualitative identification of nucleic acids from organisms frequently found in the urinary tract. This method is highly accurate, extremely sensitive, and is used to identify organisms by amplifying and detecting genetic material of pathogens in samples. The panel will aid in the research of causative agents of urinary tract infections and their prevalence.

The target organisms included in the panel are as follows:
Candida albicans, Candida glabrata, Candida krusei, Candida parapsilosis, Candida tropicalis, Enterococcus faecium/faecalis, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B), and Vancomycin (vanA, vanB) (optional).
