RSV Detection Kit

Detection of RSV

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a single-stranded RNA virus of the Paramyxoviridae family. In healthy individuals it causes respiratory tract infections with cold like symptoms, but it may cause severe respiratory infections in young children, elderly and immunocompromised patients.

RSV RQ Kit provides a ready-to-use Real-Time PCR assay for detection of RSV.

Advantages of RSV RQ Kit

Ready to Use

The RSV Mix contains all necessary reagents for Real-Time PCR and is ready to use; no further reagent or mixing is required. Reactions are prepared simply by addition of the mix directly to the tubes followed by the sample DNA. Results can be viewed in Green/FAM and Yellow/VIC channels.

Internal Control

Kit also contains reagents for detection of DNA as Internal Control which is detected in Yellow/VIC channel. Internal Control prevents false negative results due to extraction failure, reaction inhibition or setup errors.

Quality Control

Control & mix of RSV RQ Kit are manufactured in batches, and each series is distributed only after passing Quality Control tests for Specificity, Sensitivity, Accuracy and Precision.

Easy & Quick Setup

Kit contains a template file for quick and easy setup of the Real-Time PCR instrument, also reducing setup errors.
