Detection test kit of pathogenic strains of Vibrio cholerae by using qPCR. Some strains of V. cholerae cause the disease cholera. V. cholerae pathogenicity genes code for proteins directly or indirectly involved in the virulence of the bacteria. During infection, V. cholerae secretes cholera toxin, a protein that causes profuse, watery diarrhea. Colonization of the small intestine also requires the toxin coregulated pilus, a thin, flexible, filamentous appendage on the surface of bacterial cells.

Vibrio parahaemolyticus by using qPCR. Vibrio parahaemolyticus when ingested, causes gastrointestinal illness in humans. While infection can occur via the fecal-oral route, ingestion of bacteria in raw or undercooked seafood, usual oysters, is the predominant cause of the acute gastroenteritis caused by V. parahaemolyticus. Wound infections also occur, but are less common than seafood-borne diseases.

Vibrio spp. detection test kit by using qPCR. Vibrio are commonly found in marine or estuarine environments. However, they can be found in freshwater environments as well. Several species of the Vibrio genus can cause foodborne infection, usually associated with eating undercooked seafood. Despite most disease-causing strains being associated with gastroenteritis, can also infect open wounds and cause septicemia. Many Vibrio species are also zoonotic. They cause disease in fish and shellfish and are common causes of mortality among marine life. Some examples of pathogenic Vibrio species include V. cholera, V. parahaemolyticus, and V. vulnificus.
