Short descriptionRealLine Babesia species is a real-time PCR kit for detection and subtyping of known Babesia species. All components are lyophilized and ready-to-use. GLU – for General Lab Use.
DescriptionBabesiosis is an infectious disease caused by Babesia parasites, which invade red blood cells. Transmission occurs primarily via ticks, but can also occur congenitally or through contaminated blood transfusion. Clinical presentation may resemble Lyme disease and often begins with high fever and chills. Severe or life-threatening courses are possible in asplenic, elderly and immunocompromised patients.
Sample Material- Blood serum, plasma
- Cerebrospinal fluid
- Tick suspension samples
Detection Channels- FAM (495 – 520 nm) for Internal Control (IC)
- ROX (575 – 602 nm) for Babesia species
NoteFor optimal results always use the RealLine Internal Control. If not using RealLine extraction kits, order the RealLine Internal Control (REF VBC8881-R) separately.
FormatsStr-format: Ready‑Mastermix is lyophilized in 0.2 ml white tubes arranged in a plate. Tubes can be separated individually. Add 50 µl of extracted DNA/RNA to each tube, seal with PCR foil or caps and run the assay. Tubes are regular-profile and compatible with RealLine Cyclers, Bio-Rad cyclers and others.
Validated Cyclers- RealLine Cycler 48 or RealLine Cycler 96 (BIORON GmbH)
- CFX96, iQ5 iCycler (Bio-Rad, USA)
- DTprime, DTLite (DNA-Technology, Russia)
- Compatible with other Real-Time cyclers; follow the IFU for device settings
