| Applications |
1. Rapid Pathogen Identification: Direct detection of species from clinical specimens (blood, sputum, CSF) without the need for time-consuming sub-culturing.
2. Sepsis Management: Differentiation between Gram-positive/Gram-negative bacteria and yeast in positive blood culture bottles.
3. Antibiotic Stewardship: Early identification allows for faster transition from broad-spectrum to targeted antimicrobial therapy. |
| Regulation Status |
For research use only (RUO) |
| Product Features |
1. High Taxonomic Specificity: Engineered using advanced thermodynamic modeling to ensure exclusive binding to the target 16S or 23S rRNA sequences with zero cross-reactivity to non-target species.
2. Superior Signal-to-Noise Ratio: Optimized probe chemistry and high-intensity fluorophore conjugation provide bright, distinct signals even in samples with high background autofluorescence.
3. Culture-Independent Detection: Directly detects and quantifies organisms in their natural state, bypassing the biases and time requirements associated with traditional cultivation methods.
4. Broad Sample Compatibility: Fully validated for use across a diverse range of sample types, including FFPE tissue sections, fresh clinical smears, environmental filters, and complex biofilms.
5. Dual-Labeling Capability: Compatible with multi-color FISH protocols, enabling the simultaneous visualization and spatial mapping of multiple different species in a single sample. |
