HCV Viral Load

TRUPCR® HCV Viral Load Kit is one step in vitro nucleic acid amplification assay for the quantitative detection of HCV viral RNA from HCV infected individual specimens using Real Time PCR System. In each test two independent reactions are running in parallel. The first detects HCV in FAM/Green channel & second detects endogenous internal control reaction on Texas red/ROX/Orange channel. The TRUPCR® HCV Viral load assay is intended for use as an aid in the management of HCV-infected patients undergoing antiviral therapy.TRUPCR® HCV Viral Load Kit primers and probes target the highly conserved regions of the HCV genome. Kit demonstrated the ability to reproducibly detect the presence of HCV at the level of = 20 IU/ml.

Key Features:

• Takes advantage of the “hot start” technology to minimizing non-specific reactions and assuring maximum sensitivity & specificity.
• The assay enables accurate quantification of genotypes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6.
• Higher analytical and diagnostics sensitivity & specificity.
• Detection limit of this assay is 20 IU/ml.
• Endogenous Internal Control included in the kit to keep a check on PCR as well as extraction.
• Calibrated with WHO reference materials (NIBSC code:18/184)
• Easy work flow & compatible with various real time PCR instruments
• No cross- reactivity with other pathogenic virus, bacteria or fungi.
• Available in different pack sizes and extraction formats
