Kit information
The Bacterial CNS Flow Chip kit is an in vitro diagnostic kit for bacteria and fungi that cause meningitis and encephalitis in humans.. The methods currently used for diagnosis are very laborious and do not always show specificity of the 100%. The Bacterial CNS Flow Chip system allows the simultaneous detection of nine bacterial species (Neisseria meningitis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus agalactiae, Listeria monocytogenes, Haemophilus influenzae, Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, Treponema pale, Coxiella burnetii, and Borrelia burgdorferi) and a mushroom (Cryptococcus neoformans) through the amplification of bacterial DNA by multiplex PCR and subsequent reverse hybridization on a membrane containing specific DNA probes for each species.
Rapid molecular diagnosis for bacterial meningitis/encephalitis
Bacterial meningitis continues to be a major public health problem., with more than a million cases and more than 200.000 deaths per year around the world. Speed in diagnosis is essential to initiate adequate treatment and improve the patient's prognosis..
Bacterial CNS Flow Chip allows the simultaneous detection of nine meningitis-causing bacteria using molecular hybridization technology, providing quick diagnosis, precise and highly sensitive for clinical laboratories.
Benefits of DNA FLOW TECHNOLOGY
