a fluorescent quantitative assay for the detection of Toxoplasma gondii in blood, feces, organs and other samples. specific primers and Taqman probes are designed with the conserved genes of Toxoplasma gondii, which are amplified by fluorescent quantitative PCR instrument. Meanwhile, this kit uses GAPDH gene as the internal reference gene, which meets the requirements of indoor quality control in the whole process from sampling, sample purification to on-line testing.
Designed based on the gene sequences of pathogens prevalent in various regions of the world, fully guaranteeing the accuracy and validity of the test;
The primers are designed with special bases to reduce the risk of missed detection due to gene mutation;
Adopting pre-filled freeze-dried microsphere technology for transportation and storage at room temperature;
Easy to use, no need to prepare reagents in advance;
The minimum detection limit is 10 copies/Test;
Clinical sensitivity 100%, specificity 99.59%;
Add internal standard to prevent false negative results and facilitate indoor quality control.
Quality by Design
Thirty-two Toxoplasma gondii sequences indexed on NCBI GenBank were compared for homology comparison using KN003111.1 as the reference sequence, and an evolutionary tree was constructed for analysis.
HCY™ Toxoplasma Gondii PCR Detection Kit is designed and developed based on the gene sequences of endemic pathogens in different regions of the world, as mentioned above, which fully ensures the accuracy and validity of the detection. At the same time, special bases are introduced in the primer sequence synthesis process to reduce the risk of missed detection due to gene mutation.
LoD and PCR Efficiency
Using real clinical samples, the assay was performed after serial gradient dilution, and the results showed good linear characteristics, and the calculated copy number was as low as 10 copies/Test. Calculation of the experimental data set yielded R2=0.9939 and the amplification efficiency E=105.39%.
Sensitivity and Specificity
The HCY™ Feline herpesvirus Real-time PCR Detection Kit was compared to similar commercially available products and tested 262 real clinical samples, of which the sensitivity was 100% and the specificity 99.59%.
