Description: PathoProof Mastitis Complete-16 KF
For Use With (Equipment): For use with the KingFisher Flex system. Must be ordered together with PF1600LB qPCR Reagents.
No. of Tests: 384 Tests
Unit Size: Each
Identify 15 of the main mastitis-causing microorganisms and the Staphylococcal β-lactamase gene responsible for penicillin resistance in Staphylococci within four hours using PathoProof Complete-16 Kits for multiplex PCR. All targeted species are detected simultaneously, overcoming the common problem of mixed growth results in bacterial culturing.
• Enables faster decisions on treatment
• Reduces time for infective agents to spread to healthy herd mates
• Reduces broad spectrum antibiotic treatment
• Shortens inflammation time due to rapid treatment
• Enables affected cows to be removed from the herd to ensure optimal milk qualityAssays are based on real-time PCR, an accurate and sensitive technology for identification of the target DNA in the sample. Tests can be used for analyzing fresh and preserved quarter milk samples, milk recording samples and bulk tank milk samples.Achieve high sensitivity,even for samples that show no growth in culture. Accurate detection of viable, dead and growth-inhibited microorganisms reduces no-growth results.PathoProof Mastitis Complete-16 Kit identifies:
• Staphylococcusaureus
• Staphylococcusspp. (including all major coagulase-negative staphylococci)
• Streptococcus agalactiae
• Streptococcus dysgalactiae
• Streptococcus uberis
• Escherichia coli
• Enterococcusspp. (includingE. faecalisandE. faecium)
• Klebsiella oxytocaandK. pneumoniae
• Serratia marcescens
• Corynebacterium bovis
• Arcanobacter pyogenesandPeptoniphilus(Peptostreptococcus)indolicus
• Staphylococcal β-lactamase gene (penicillin-resistance gene)
• Mycoplasma bovis
• Mycoplasmaspp.
• Yeast
• ProtothecasppAutomated sample preparationSignificantly reduce the hands-on time needed when processing larger numbers of samples with the semi-automated Thermo Scientific™ KingFisher™ instrument for magnetic bead-based DNA purification and extraction, along with PathoProof Mastitis Complete-16 KingFisher Kits and qPCR reagents.Not all products are available for sale in all territories.
