Vibrio cholerae

Description

The Vibrio cholerae real-time qPCR detection kit from Primerdesign provides specific detection of Vibrio cholerae in water, the cause of cholera and a critical target for water-safety surveillance, particularly in endemic and disaster-affected settings. The TaqMan-based assay targets a conserved, species-specific region for sensitive detection directly from extracted DNA.

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.

Key features of the Vibrio cholerae kit

• Real-time qPCR (TaqMan) detection of Vibrio cholerae
• Species-specific target with high analytical specificity
• Sensitive detection supporting water-safety surveillance
• Primer/probe mix and positive control template included
• Advanced format adds an internal extraction control and a quantification standard
• Compatible with standard real-time PCR instruments

It is ideally suited to drinking- and surface-water testing and public-health surveillance. Available in Standard (qualitative) and Advanced (quantitative) formats, with detailed set-up and result interpretation described in the included IFU/handbook.
