AccuPower® Neisseria flavescens Real-time PCR Kit

Overview

N. flavescens is a gram-negative bacterium that causes meningitis, pneumonia and sepsis. N. flavescens is commonly known as a putrefying bacterium of the oral cavity, nasopharynx, and respiratory tract. However, there is a report that N. flavescens leads to infection through inflow into the bloodstream or other organs, so the need for related research is emerging. In a susceptibility test, N. flavescens isolates reported to be susceptible to amoxicillin and clarithromycin, but high resistant to metronidazole.

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.
