Overview

Description

Description: Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an RNA virus that belongs to the family Togaviridae , genus Alphavirus . CHIKV is primarily transmitted to people through the bite of an infected mosquito. The most common symptoms are fever and joint pain, but it can also lead to headache, muscle pain, joint swelling, or rash. People at risk for more severe cases include newborns, older adults (≥65 years) and people with medical conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or heart disease. Chikungunya RT-qPCR Kit is designed for the in vitro detection of CHIKV genomes. The kit is built to have the broadest possible detection profile whilst remaining specific to CHIKV. Thus, this kit has been designed for the specific (inclusivity) and exclusive (exclusivity) in vitro detection of this species. The primers and probe sequences have very high (>95%) homology with a broad range of CHIKV genomes based on a comprehensive bioinformatic analysis with all reference data within the NCBI database at the time of design. Due to the inherent instability of RNA viral genomes, it is not possible to guarantee the detection of all clinical isolates. If required, a complementary kit for the detection of an endogenous gene of the species from which samples are being extracted is available for purchase(see Human). The complementary usage of an Endogenous Detection reaction provides a solid confirmation that nucleic acids were properly extracted from the selected biological matrix. If you require further information or have a specific question about the detection profile of this kit, please send an e-mail to info@nzytech.com and our scientific team will answer your question. This kit is designed to be used by trained users in a suitable molecular biology laboratory environment.
