Candida albicans
Pathogen DetectionSpecific primers are designed against Candida albicans to detect it by PCR in oral and crop swabs. For molecular diagnosis of candidiasis (thrush) in pigeons, helping distinguish fungal from bacterial infection.
Specific primers and probes are designed against conserved pathogen regions to reduce non-specific amplification.
Fluorescent probe chemistry is sensitive enough to detect low-copy-number nucleic acid.
A built-in dUTP/UNG system removes false positives caused by residual PCR aerosol.
Supplied with internal-control quality checks to support confidence in the process and the result.
