Aeromonas hydrophila

Description

The Aeromonas hydrophila real-time qPCR detection kit from Primerdesign provides fast, sensitive detection of Aeromonas hydrophila, the principal cause of motile aeromonad septicaemia (MAS) and ulcerative disease in a wide range of freshwater fish and shellfish, and an opportunistic foodborne pathogen. The TaqMan-based assay targets a conserved, species-specific genomic region for confident identification within the motile Aeromonas group directly from extracted nucleic acid.

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 Aeromonas hydrophila kit
