Description
Description
Diagnosis from various patient sample material
Lyme disease is the most common illness transmitted by ticks in the northern hemisphere. It is caused by different species of the so-called Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato complex. Antibiotic therapy has proven to be very effective especially during the early phase of the disease. FluoroType® Borrelia provides rapid and reliable detection of Borrelia spp. directly from synovial fluid, cerebrospinal fluid and blood, thus nothing prevents a prompt start of therapy.
High grade of automation and comprehensible result presentation
Automated isolation of bacterial DNA with GenoXtract® is combined with automated amplification and detection optionally with FluoroCycler® 12 or FluoroCycler® XT. An Internal Control is included in the procedure to ensure successful sample extraction and valid test performance. Subsequent test analysis with the user-friendly FluoroSoftware® gives the result at a glance and easy to interpret.
Your Benefits with FluoroType® Borrelia
- High sensitivity and specificity: The detection of highly conserved DNA sequences allows for the sensitive identification of pathogens belonging to the B. burgdorferi sensu lato complex within only three hours.
- User-friendly procedure: The ready-to-use amplification mix already contains the Taq polymerase. From amplification to result, all steps run fully automated in the FluoroCycler® 12 or FluoroCycler® XT. The subsequent test-specific interpretation of the results is performed by the intuitive FluoroSoftware®.
- Reliable results: An Internal Control documents the correct extraction of DNA as well as the successful amplification, thus guaranteeing a valid test performance.
- Flexible application: Single samples as well as big batches can be analysed efficiently with FluoroType® Borrelia.
- CE-marked: No need for elaborate validation studies.
