This kit uses RT-PCR for in vitro detection of Legionella in sputum, bronchalveolar lavage fluid, serum, plasma, and other samples. Test results may serve as a reference for clinical evaluation of Legionella infection.
Based on high-efficiency enzymatic processing technology, the test uses specific gene sequences as PCR targets. Human genomic sequence is used as internal quality control.
Only one step for nucleic acid processing, reducing operations to direct PCR sample processing and amplification. Turnaround time is less than 35 minutes.
