PCR Solutions
DEC PCR Kit
The DEC PCR Kit is a multiplex PCR system that detects virulence genes from diarrhoeagenic E. coli 1 (DEC). Traditionally, this has been achieved by serotyping, followed by verocytotoxin cell assays, and therefore strains have previously been overlooked where they have virulence genes that have not had a serotype known for its pathogenicity.
The product DEC Primer Mix is a multiplex PCR system that detects virulence genes from diarrhoeagenic E. coli 1 (DEC). Traditionally, this has been achieved by serotyping, followed by verocytotoxin cell assays, and therefore strains have previously been overlooked where they have virulence genes that have not had a serotype known for its pathogenicity.
Nail infections are caused chiefly by T. rubrum and T. mentagrophytes. Traditionally, these species are identified from nail samples by culturing on medium, which takes 10-15 days to 3-4 weeks.
If you work within the field of microbiology, you might be familiar with Occam’s Razor. At SSI Diagnostica, we champion a slightly adapted version of this principle: The simplest solution is usually the best one.
