ANCHOR HSV 1/2 PCR Kit

Quantitative or Qualitative Real-Time PCR Kit for in vitro diagnostic use (CE-IVD)

Image

The ANCHOR HSV 1/2 PCR Kit is a specialized real-time PCR-based test designed for the reliable amplification, detection, quantitation, and differentiation of Herpes Simplex Virus 1 (HSV 1) and Herpes Simplex Virus 2 (HSV 2) DNA from various human specimens, including:

◽ EDTA plasma
◽ Cerebrospinal fluid
◽ Cutaneous/mucocutaneous lesions

Key Features & Advantages

Rapid Results

Achieve efficient sample processing with PCR results within just 30 minutes*.
* Exact PCR run time may vary depending on real-time PCR instrument used.

Precise Quantitative and Qualitative Detection and Differentiation

  • Uses distinguishable fluorescent dyes for parallel and highly specific detection and differentiation of HSV 1 and HSV 2-specific DNA and the Internal Control across three detector channels of real-time PCR instruments.
  • The Quantitation Standards (QS1-QS4 HSV 1/2) ensure reliable results for precise viral load quantitation and clinical diagnosis.

Integrated Quality Monitoring

  • Includes an Internal Control (IC) to verify sample extraction success and detect PCR amplification inhibition
  • Quantitation Standards serve as positive controls with artificial DNA representing target sequences of HSV 1 and HSV 2 DNA to ensure reagent integrity and reaction performance.
  • Comes with a Negative Control DNA to exclude false positive results.

Optimized for Efficiency & Flexibility

  • Compatible with all ANCHOR PCR kits in the same run (harmonized temperature profiles)
  • Intuitive and identical pipetting scheme for all ANCHOR PCR kits
  • Works with various nucleic acid purification systems and cycler platforms for cost efficiency and operational ease
  • 100-reaction kits include 4x 25-reaction Master Mix vials to reduce freeze-thaw cycles
