【Product introduction】
Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a conditionally pathogenic bacteria, usually found in the vagina and rectum, about 15%~35% of the healthy population carries the bacteria, but in the female reproductive tract of the Group B Streptococcus can be passed to the newborn during labor and delivery. This can cause neonatal meningitis, sepsis and pneumonia, of which 5% can lead to death.
【Principle of the technology】
Adopting the ring-mediated isothermal amplification method, selecting the nucleic acid S gene of group B streptococcus as the target, designing specific primers for the target, and then amplifying the reaction at a constant temperature of 60-65℃ under the action of DNA polymerase, the reaction can be completed in 45 minutes, and the results can be read through the color change, which is simple to operate, with strong specificity and other characteristics.
【Product Advantages】
High accuracy: new LAMP technology platform
High efficiency: easy operation and short detection period.
Isothermal amplification: no need for complex equipment conditions, ready to test.
High specificity: specific primers, no cross-reactivity.
【Scope of application
All pregnant women bet】ween 35-37 weeks of gestation
Preterm pregnant women, pregnant women who are not sure about GBS colonization before delivery.
