Q-PLUS ™ – Salmonella Detection Kit

Overview

Salmonellosis is the second most reported gastrointestinal disorder in the European Union resulting from the consumption of Salmonella-contaminated foods. Salmonella is a rod-shape Gram-negative bacterium that belongs to the family of Enterobacteriaceae. Salmonella species are intracellular food-borne pathogens that cause infections due to ingestion of food contaminated by animal or human feces.

Q-PLUS™- Salmonella Detection Kit is an excellent tool for a rapid and highly sensitive detection of Salmonella spp. It allows molecular detection of pathogenic Salmonella spp in samples previously enriched, reducing the time of well-established microbiological diagnostic process.

Q-PLUS™- Salmonella Detection Kit is based on Taqman® probes signaling after the amplification of a specific Salmonella target (FAM probe). The kit also includes an Internal Positive Control (ROX probe) for monitoring PCR inhibition and false negative results. Negative Control is used to check the absence of contamination.
