Description

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Staphylococcus aureus (SA) bacteria are major causes of nosocomial infections associated with higher morbidity and significant hospital costs. Rapid and reliable detection of MRSA and SA with molecular methods is important for pre-surgical screening, identification of colonised patients and better control infections in healthcare settings. MRSA/SA ELITe MGB® Kit is a triplex PCR assay designed for the detection and differentiation of Staphylococcus aureus and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus DNAs, based on a unique patented design. The assay is CE-IVD validated on different sample matrices in combination with ELITe InGenius®, a fully automated sample-to-result solution. Benefits Conserved targets MTB Complex: IS6110 region repeated sequence Rifampicin resistance: rpoB gene hotspot region Isoniazid resistance: katG gene and inhA gene regions Internal control: artificial DNA sequence Easy-to-use Monoreagents, ready to use Best-in class PCR technology ELITe MGB® probes designed with Minor Groove Binder technology, Superbases® and Eclipse® Dark Quencher Integrated workflow Fully automated process for extraction, amplification and result analysis with ELITe InGenius Eluate storage Additional testing including multiple PCR from the same eluate, retesting or archiving Complete HAI menu - ESBL ELITe MGB® Kit, CRE ELITe MGB® Kit, C. difficile ELITe MGB® Kit and Colistin-R ELITe MGB® Kit
