Highlighted Product and Features

GT-Digital H5* Wastewater Surveillance Assay for the Bio-Rad QX200™ or QX600™ Droplet Digital™ PCR System (Beta)

Molecular reagent kit consisting of all primers, probes, and controls necessary for wastewater surveillance of avian H5* influenza. Assay solutions and appropriate controls are provided for the quantification of avian H5* influenza. Through the use of this kit in conjunction with the Bio-Rad QX200™ or QX600™ Droplet Digital™ PCR System, users can monitor avian H5* influenza levels at the community level.

*Disclaimer! This assay was designed to ensure detection of H5N1 subtypes from avian, cattle, and human origin. Importantly, this assay is predicted to
detect other H5 subtypes of influenza such as H5N5, H5N6, etc. However, this assay is not predicted to cross-react with other subtypes of influenza A
such as H1 and H3.

For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
