C. difficilestoolfor real-time PCR

Clostridium difficile bacteria are major causes of healthcare associated infections, especially in the elderly or in patients treated by antibiotics. Intensive use of antibiotics can promote C. difficile expansion, leading to severe outcomes. Rapid detection of patients with Clostridium difficile infections in healthcare facilities is crucial, to isolate infected patients, provide an appropriate treatment and proceed to decontamination. C. difficile ELITe MGB® Kit is a real-time PCR assay designed for the detection and the differentiation of Clostridium difficile toxins A and B DNA, including the hypervirulent epidemic NAP1/BI/027 strain. The assay is CE-IVD validated on stool, in combination with ELITe InGenius®, a fully automated sample-to-result solution. Benefits Conserved targets Conserved regions of Toxin A (tcdA) and Toxin B (tcdB) genes and an artificial DNA sequence as an internal control Easy-to-use Monoreagent, ready to use Best-in class PCR technology ELITe MGB probes designed with Minor Groove Binder, Superbases® and Eclipse® Dark Quencher Integrated workflow Fully automated process for extraction, amplification and result analysis with ELITe InGenius Eluate storage Additional testing including multiple PCR from the same eluate, retesting or archiving Complete HAI menu - CRE ELITe MGB® Kit, ESBL ELITe MGB® Kit, MRSA/SA ELITe MGB® Kit and Colistin - R ELITe MGB® Kit
