Fast Multiplex PCR Detection of Plasmid-Mediated AmpC β-Lactamase Genes
The Cica Geneus AmpC Genotype Detection KIT enables rapid and accurate identification of six major plasmid-mediated AmpC β-lactamase genes, which are often responsible for resistance to cephalosporins and cephamycins. This multiplex PCR kit is ideal for infection control, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance, and epidemiological studies of resistant Gram-negative bacteria.
