BriefLower respiratory infections are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Prompt and accurate identification of causative bacteria improves patient management, reduces inappropriate antibiotic use and supports infection control. The S3310E 6LRP kit is designed to detect six common bacterial pathogens of the lower respiratory tract from sputum samples using multiplex nucleic acid amplification.
Features- Efficient multiplex detection: Simultaneous identification of six common lower respiratory tract bacteria in a single reaction; batch throughput of 94 samples in approximately 100 minutes.
- High sensitivity and specificity: Validated limits of detection for target organisms; robust internal control monitoring to reduce false negatives; UDG enzyme and dUTP measures to minimise contamination-related false positives.
- Workflow adaptability: Compatible with automated extraction platforms and standard real-time PCR instruments for intelligent result analysis, suitable for clinical laboratories, emergency departments and primary care settings.
