Overview

Description

Description: Bartonella is a genus of Gram-negative, slow growing and facultative intracellular pathogen that infect mainly mammalian hosts. This bacterium is often transferred via blood sucking arthropod vectors such as ticks, fleas, sand flies, and mosquitoes. At least 20 species are known to cause host-specific intraerythrocytic infections in their specific mammalian reservoir hosts. Bartonella spp. qPCR Kit is designed for the in vitro detection of the following Bartonella species: B. clarridgeiae, B. elizabethae, B. grahamii, B. henselae, B. koehlerae, B. quintana, B. volans and B. washoensis. Bartonella rochalimae, B. vinsonii and B. bovis are detected with very low sensitivity. Bartonella bacilliformis is not detected. The kit is built to have the broadest possible detection profile whilst remaining specific to Bartonella spp. Thus, this kit has been designed for the specific (inclusivity) and exclusive (exclusivity) in vitro detection of this genus. The primers and probe sequences have very high (>95%) homology with the previously specified Bartonella spp. genomes based on a comprehensive bioinformatic analysis with all reference data within the NCBI database. Other closely related genus are not detected. 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 Vet, Food & Pharma and 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.
