Enteric infections

Acute enteric infections

PCR tests used for accurate and timely diagnostics of such infections include: :

• BacScreen AEI 1
  The test is designed for detection of campylobacteria (Campylobacter coli and Campylobacter jejuni), Shigella spp., enteroinvasive E.coli, and Salmonella spp. DNA.
  The BacScreen AEI 1 REAL-TIME PCR Detection Kit is suitable for primary diagnostics in cases of the infectious diarrhea, which is most commonly accompanied by fever, nausea, vomiting, and cramping abdominal pain.


• «Shigella/EIEC and Salmonella spp.»
  The test is designed for detection of Shigella spp., enteroinvasive Escherichia coli (EIEC), and Salmonella spp. DNA.
  The Shigella/EIEC and Salmonella spp. REAL-TIME PCR Detection Kit is suitable for target diagnostics of agents causing invasive diarrhea types: shigellosis, escherichiosis (enterocolitis caused by EIEC), salmonellosis.

PCR diagnostics allows for high-precision determination of an infectious process etiology even with low pathogen load and asymptomatic bacterial carriage. BacScreen AEI 1 REAL-TIME PCR Detection Kit and Shigella/EIEC and Salmonella spp. REAL-TIME PCR Detection Kit provide rapid results, which is essential for the timely initiation of therapy.
