DiAGSure® Nipah Virus Taqman PCR Detection Kit

Catalog No.: GDQ6060-20R 20, GDQ6060-50R, GDQ6060-100R
Intent to use:
The DiAGSure® Nipah Virus Detection Kit is a highly sensitive and specific real-time PCR assay designed for the rapid detection of Nipah virus (NiV), a deadly zoonotic pathogen known to cause severe respiratory illness and acute encephalitis in humans. Transmitted through direct contact with infected bats, pigs, or bodily fluids of infected individuals, Nipah virus outbreaks are associated with high mortality rates and significant public health concern, particularly in South and Southeast Asia. The disease often presents with non-specific symptoms, progressing rapidly to neurological complications and multi-organ failure. Early and accurate detection is critical for timely intervention, outbreak containment, and reducing transmission risk. The DiAGSure® kit targets conserved genetic regions of the virus, ensuring robust detection even at low viral loads. It is an essential tool for surveillance, clinical diagnosis, and emergency preparedness in regions at risk of emerging viral threats.
