Detail
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) Genotyping (CE IVD)
RTA HCV Genotyping qPCR Kit is an in vitro nucleic acid amplification assay for identification of the genotypes of Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA in human serum or plasma (EDTA). RTA HCV Genotyping qPCR Kit detects HCV genotypes 1a, 1b, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. RTA HCV Genotyping qPCR Kit is intended for use as an aid in the management of patients with chronic HCV infection and creating a strategy for anti-viral therapy in conjunction with all relevant clinical and laboratory findings.
RTA HCV Genotyping qPCR Kit provides you everything needed for a reliable and efficient identification:
- Very high sensitivity of identification of HCV genotypes in 3 different tubes.
- Highly precise discrimination of 1a vs. 1b subtypes.
- Highly compatible results with sequencing (> 99 ‘70)
- Whole process check by adding the internal control during extraction
- 98/79/EC EU IVD Directive compliance
Sample Preparation: Nucleic acid extraction is a decisive step prior to qPCR since; providing high yields of nucleic acid and removal of PCR inhibitors in turn improve the amplification efficiency and critical for avoiding false negative PCR results.
RTA HCV Genotyping qPCR Kit has been validated for use with RTA Viral RNA Isolation Kit or RTA Viral Nucleic Acid Isolation Kit for its best performance.
