RevoDx Respiratory-24 v2.0 Pathogen Detection Kit
Molecular diagnostics for respiratory tract infections is revolutionizing the way we detect and treat these conditions. With advanced techniques, scientists can now identify the specific pathogens causing respiratory infections with exceptional accuracy. This allows healthcare providers to make well-informed treatment decisions tailored to each patient.
In the past, diagnosing respiratory infections depended primarily on symptoms and physical exams. Today, molecular diagnostics enable clinicians to analyze genetic material from pathogens found in samples like sputum, nasal, or throat swabs. By detecting the unique DNA or RNA sequences of these infectious agents, healthcare professionals can pinpoint the exact cause of the infection, leading to more targeted treatments and improved patient outcomes.
RevoDx Respiratory-24 v2.0 Pathogen Detection Kit is a real-time PCR test intended for the qualitative detection and identification of nucleic acids of the specific bacterial and 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.
