Description
Unit Size: Each
Features of the VetMAX Rotavirus A/B/C Kit include:
• Rapid and cost-effective method for amplification of target sequences
• Contains optimized fast-cycling multiplex master mix
• Identifies and distinguishes rotavirus subtypes A, B, and C in a single well and from pools of up to five samples
• Fast run time of as little as 54 minutes
• Can run on the same plate as PRRSV 3.0 Kit
• Instructions for Use includedEase of useAll components for running the PCR are included in the kit. The sample preparation workflow has been tested with MagMAX sample extraction chemistry and KingFisher instruments. The kit has been validated for several swine sample types, eliminating the need for separate kits for each type. And this real-time PCR kit can be used with different thermocyclers, with the same results and reliability.Kit contents

Infection commonly causes villus atrophy resulting in dehydration, malabsorption, and wasting. Uncomplicated cases are typically accompanied by high morbidity but low mortality; however, co-infection with other enteric pathogens such as E. coli can lead to increased mortality rates.
