Candida albicans Nucleic Acid Detection Kit

Candida albicans

Pathogen Detection

Product overview

Specific 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.

Technical features

🎯

High specificity

Specific primers and probes are designed against conserved pathogen regions to reduce non-specific amplification.

🔬

High sensitivity

Fluorescent probe chemistry is sensitive enough to detect low-copy-number nucleic acid.

🛡️

Anti-contamination

A built-in dUTP/UNG system removes false positives caused by residual PCR aerosol.

📊

Reliable results

Supplied with internal-control quality checks to support confidence in the process and the result.

Workflow

  1. 1 Sample collection: collect throat swabs, cloacal swabs or faecal samples using standard technique
  2. 2 Nucleic acid extraction: extract DNA/RNA from the sample
  3. 3 Set-up and amplification: add the reaction mix and run the amplification programme
  4. 4 Result interpretation: read the result from the fluorescence signal together with the internal control
