GeneProof BK/JC Virus (BK/JC) PCR Kit

CE IVD

 PRODUCT DETAIL

The PCR kit is designed for BK/JC viruses detection and differentiation by the real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (duplex PCR) method.

The BK/JC viruses detection and differentiation consists in amplification of a specific conservative DNA sequence overlapping the boundary between the gene for the VP1 and VP2 proteins and in measurement of fluorescence increase. The BK virus presence is indicated by the FAM fluorophore fluorescence growth and the JC virus presence is indicated by the Cy5 fluorophore fluorescence growth. An Internal Standard (IS) is either included in the reaction mix, controlling the possible inhibition of the PCR (ISIN version) or excluded, controlling also the DNA extraction process quality (ISEX version). IS positive amplification is detected in the HEX fluorophore fluorescence channel. The detection kit takes advantage of the "hot start" technology minimizing non-specific reactions and assuring maximum sensitivity. Ready to Use MasterMix contains uracil DNA glycosylase (UDG) eliminating possible contamination of the PCR with amplification products. The kit is designed for in vitro diagnostics and provides qualitative and quantitative detection.
