VetMAX™-Gold AIV Detection Kit

Description

The VetMAX™-Gold AIV Detection Kit (Avian Influenza Virus RNA Test Kit) is a highly sensitive, qualitative, one-step, real-time RT-PCR assay to detect Avian Influenza Virus (AIV) RNA isolated from poultry (chicken/turkey) oropharyngeal/tracheal swab samples.

• A highly sensitive, qualitative, one-step, real-time RT-PCR assay to detect Avian Influenza Virus (AIV) RNA isolated from poultry (chicken/turkey) oropharyngeal/tracheal swab samples
• The VetMAX™-Gold AIV Detection Kit is a screening tool that detects sequences representing portions of the viral matrix (two distinct targets) and nucleoprotein (one target)
• These are genes that are common to all AIV subtypes and found on viral RNA extracted from poultry samples
• Assay is a single-well/tube, real-time RT-PCR assay in which RNA is reverse-transcribed into cDNA, and AIV and Xeno™ RNA targets are amplified and detected in real time using fluorescent TaqMan™ probes (hydrolysis probe chemistry)
• Within the U.S., laboratories must receive authorization from their state veterinarian prior to ordering and using this kit for the diagnosis of myobacterium avium spp. paratuberculosis
• Similar product use restrictions may exist in other countries, at the discretion of the relevant veterinary authority
• Kit is not intended for differentiating AIV subtypes

Kit Includes:

• Influenza Virus-Xeno™ RNA Control Mix: serves as a positive control for the real-time RT-PCR components and used to set the cycle threshold (CT) for evaluating test results
• Xeno™ RNA Control: serves as an internal positive control for the RNA purification process and used to monitor for the presence of PCR inhibitors
• Influenza Virus Primer Probe Mix: for optimized multiplex real-time RT-PCR amplification of Xeno™ RNA Control and AIV RNA targets
