By using real time PCR systems, Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) real time PCR kit is used for the in vitro qualitative detection of TV. It can be used for the laboratory diagnosis and monitoring of TV infection. The test results are only for clinical reference, not for case confirmation or exclusion.
Principle:
The specific primers and specific fluorescent probes are designed for the nucleic acid conserved region of Trichomonas vaginalis (TV). The RT-PCR reaction solution and real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR detection technology is applied on the fluorescence quantitative PCR instrument for realizes the rapid detection of TV through the change of fluorescence signal. The detection system contains a human internal control (IC) gene, which is used to monitor whether the specimens and the process of nucleic acid extraction is qualified.
Specimen requirements:
1. Specimen type
Urine or female vaginal secretions swab samples.
2. Specimen Preservation
The specimen can be stored for 3 months at -20±5℃ and for a long time below -70℃
