VIASURE H. pylori + Clarithromycin resistance Real Time PCR Detection Kit is designed for the specific identification of H. pylori and detection of clarithromycin (CLR) resistance in H. pylori in gastric tissue biopsies from patients with signs and symptoms of gastrointestinal infection.
This test is intended to be used as an aid in the diagnosis of H. pylori and its resistance to clarithromycin in combination with clinical and epidemiological risk factors.
DNA is extracted from gastric tissue biopsies, multiplied using Real Time amplification and detected using specific primers and a fluorescent reporter dye probe for H. pylori and clarithromycin resistance in H. pylori. The assay for detecting CLR resistance in H. pylori is based on detection of point mutations in the 23S rRNA gene.
