BactoReal® Kit Neisseria meningitidis

Detection of the ctrA gene of Neisseria meningitidis.

Background: Neisseria meningitidis is a Gram-negative bacterium causing meningitis and septicemia. There are 13 clinically significant serogroups, which are classified according to the antigenic structure of their polysaccharide capsule. Five serogroups (A, B, C, Y and W135) are responsible for virtually all cases of the disease. Serogroup B is the predominant one. The capsular transport protein (ctrA) gene is unique to N. meningitidis and can be found in all meningococcal serogroups.

Description: BactoReal® Kit Neisseria meningitidis uses real-time PCR for the detection of the capsular transport protein (ctrA) gene of all known serogroups of N. meningitidis. Our carefully designed primers and probe ensure highest sensitivity and specificity. The kit consists of an assay mix for the detection of the pathogen as well as a positive control and an internal positive control (IPC). To minimize PCR cross-contamination, the reaction mix included contains dUTP and uracil-N glycosylase (UNG).
