Hantavirus Real-Time PCR Kit

Product Overview

This in vitro qualitative diagnostic kit is designed for the specific detection of Hantavirus RNA in human serum specimens. It targets the primary pathogenic strains causing hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS), including Hantaan, Seoul and Puumala viruses, providing accurate molecular evidence to support early clinical diagnosis and timely patient management for this acute rodent-borne infectious disease. The assay utilizes TaqMan probe-based real-time fluorescent PCR technology. Highly specific primers and dual-labeled hydrolysis probes are designed targeting the conserved S gene region of Hantavirus. During amplification, the 5'→3' exonuclease activity of Taq polymerase cleaves the probe bound to the template, separating the reporter dye from the quencher dye and generating measurable fluorescent signals detected via the FAM channel. The kit incorporates a human RNase P housekeeping gene internal control detected via the VIC fluorescence channel, which effectively monitors specimen sampling quality, nucleic acid extraction efficiency and potential PCR inhibition, ensuring the validity of each individual test result. This kit delivers exceptional analytical performance with a limit of detection (LOD) of 5 copies per reaction, enabling sensitive identification of low-level viral loads in serum samples. It demonstrates high analytical specificity with no cross-reactivity with a comprehensive panel of related pathogens including Yellow Fever Virus, Dengue Virus, Japanese Encephalitis Virus, West Nile Virus, Ebola Virus, Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus, Lassa Virus and other common infectious agents. The assay exhibits excellent precision with coefficient of variation (CV) values less than 5% for both repeatability and within-laboratory reproducibility. It is fully compatible with all mainstream real-time PCR instruments including Bioperfectus STC-96A, STC-96A PLUS, Applied Biosystems 7500, QuantStudio™ 5, Roche LightCycler® 480, Bio-Rad CFX96™, QIAGEN Rotor-Gene Q and Analytik Jena qTOWER3. The kit is available in two standard specifications: 25 tests per kit (REF: YJC60124NW-25T) and 50 tests per kit (REF: YJC60124NW-50T). All components should be stored at -20±5°C protected from light, and repeated freezing and thawing should be avoided to maintain reagent stability. This CE certified product is intended for professional in vitro diagnostic use only. All patient specimens must be inactivated at 56°C for 30 minutes prior to processing in accordance with laboratory biosafety requirements. Test results should be interpreted by trained healthcare professionals in conjunction with patient clinical history, exposure history, signs and symptoms, and other diagnostic findings to support accurate clinical decision-making.
