AccuPower® Corynebacterium striatum Real-time PCR Kit

Overview

C. striatum is a gram-positive bacterium commonly found in human skin and respiratory tract. It was not important pathogens because mainly classified as a contaminant and showed low toxicity. But recently, Infection rate is increasing by C. striatum and interest has been increasing. The infection causes sepsis, endocarditis, and pneumonia, and there are many cases of infection in hospitals. Most C. striatum are resistant to various antibiotics, so appropriate treatment through susceptibility testing is required for treatment.

Features and Benefits

• Convenience
  All necessary reactants for real-time PCR are included in a tube (i.e., Master Mix Type), allowing the users to perform reaction simply by adding template DNA, Oligo Mix, and DEPC-D.W.
  
  
• Sensitivity
  By using BIONEER’s HotStart Taq DNA Polymerase that minimizes non-specific reactions and maximizes reaction efficiency, only the target gene can be effectively amplified even with a trace amount of template DNA.
