For Detection of Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) Pathotypes
The Cica Geneus Pathogenesis Gene Detection PCR Kit is a multiplex PCR-based diagnostic solution for detecting major virulence genes in diarrheagenic E. coli. This kit enables the identification of E. coli pathotypes responsible for gastrointestinal disease, such as EHEC, EPEC, ETEC, EIEC, and EAEC. By amplifying multiple genes simultaneously and digitizing results, laboratories can swiftly interpret electrophoresis band patterns and classify isolates with confidence.
Key Features
Multiplex Detection of 5 DEC Pathotypes Targets key virulence genes associated with:
EHEC (Enterohemorrhagic)
EPEC (Enteropathogenic)
ETEC (Enterotoxigenic)
EIEC (Enteroinvasive)
EAEC (Enteroaggregative)
Amplifies 8 Genetic Targets Includes eaeA, stx1, stx2, est, elt, aggR, invE, and internal control (16S rDNA).
Clear & Objective Results Band presence is analyzed with a point-based system to determine total virulence and pathotype classification.
Rapid & Efficient Easy to implement using conventional PCR and agarose gel electrophoresis. Interpretation takes just minutes post-run.
Ready-to-use Reagents Includes all essential primer mixes and controls for 100 reactions.
