RevoDx Respiratory-6 Pathogen Detection Kit
Molecular diagnostics are transforming the landscape of respiratory tract infection detection and treatment by providing precise identification of pathogens. This innovative approach enables scientists to accurately pinpoint the specific viruses or bacteria responsible for infections, giving healthcare providers critical insights for selecting the most effective therapies. Traditionally, diagnosing respiratory infections relied heavily on symptoms and physical examinations. Now, with molecular diagnostics, clinicians can analyze genetic material from pathogens found in patient samples, such as sputum, nasal swabs, or throat swabs. By detecting distinct DNA or RNA sequences, healthcare professionals can accurately identify the cause of the infection, leading to targeted treatments and enhanced patient outcomes.
Intended Use
RevoDx Respiratory-6 Pathogen Detection Kit is a real-time PCR test intended for the qualitative detection and identification of nucleic acids of the specific viral pathogens from human nasopharyngeal swab, oropharyngeal swab, nasopharyngeal aspirate/lavage, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), bronchial aspirate (BAS), sputum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) specimens from individuals with signs and/or symptoms of respiratory infection.
The following pathogens are detected by RevoDx Respiratory-6 Pathogen Detection Kit:
