DiAGSure® Measles Virus Detection Kit

Catalog No.: GDQ6036-20R, GDQ6036-50R, GDQ6036-100R
Intent to use:
The DiAGSure® Measles Virus Detection Kit is a highly sensitive and specific real-time PCR assay developed for the rapid identification of Measles virus (MeV), a highly contagious RNA virus that causes measles—a vaccine-preventable disease still responsible for outbreaks and mortality in under-immunized populations. Measles presents with fever, cough, conjunctivitis, and a characteristic rash, and can lead to severe complications such as pneumonia, encephalitis, and death, particularly in young children and immunocompromised individuals. Early and accurate diagnosis is essential for timely isolation, treatment, and outbreak containment. The DiAGSure® kit targets conserved regions of the Measles virus genome to ensure precise detection even in early stages or low viral-load samples. It is an essential tool for clinical diagnosis, surveillance programs, and public health interventions, especially in the context of measles elimination efforts and global vaccination initiatives.
