DiAGSure® Typhoid TaqMan PCR Kit

Catalog No.: GDQ2041-20R, GDQ2041-50R, GDQ2041-100R
Intent to use:
The DiAGSure® Typhoid Detection Kit is a real-time PCR assay designed for the rapid and accurate detection of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi, the causative agent of typhoid fever. Typhoid remains a major public health concern in developing regions, often presenting with non-specific symptoms such as prolonged fever, abdominal pain, and malaise—frequently leading to misdiagnosis. Traditional culture methods are time-consuming and less sensitive, especially in patients pre-treated with antibiotics. The DiAGSure® kit overcomes these limitations by detecting pathogen DNA directly from clinical samples with high sensitivity and specificity, enabling early and reliable diagnosis. It is ideal for both routine clinical use and outbreak surveillance, particularly in endemic areas. The assay helps guide timely antimicrobial therapy, supports infection control, and reduces the risk of complications and transmission. It is a valuable tool for improving typhoid diagnosis and patient management.
