Description
The Giardia intestinalis real-time qPCR detection kit from Primerdesign provides detection of Giardia intestinalis, a chlorine-tolerant protozoan parasite whose cysts are a frequent cause of waterborne giardiasis. The TaqMan-based assay targets a conserved region for sensitive detection of low cyst numbers directly from extracted DNA, supporting water-safety surveillance.
Each kit supplies a ready-to-use primer and probe mix together with a positive control template, providing a complete workflow from extracted DNA on any standard real-time PCR platform. The Advanced format additionally includes an internal extraction control to flag inhibition and a copy-number standard curve for absolute quantification of pathogen load.
