Two new C.difficile detection kits now available from Human Genetic Signatures
Human Genetic Signatures announces the immediate availaility of two cost effective C. difficile kits based upon the same kits that detected a recent outbreak of hypervirulent C.difficile in Sydney, Australia.
The EasyScreen C.difficile Detection kit uses HGS' proprietary 3baseTM technology to detect both the tcdA and tcdB toxin genes.
The EasyScreen C.difficile Reflex kit detects hypervirulent strains of C. difficile (eg. 027 and 078) by detecting the additional markers specific to the tcdC gene, binary toxin and fluroquinolone resistance.
The HGS C. difficile tests allow for pre-emptive screening of these antibiotic resistant, C. difficile bacteria, and differentiates these more serious hypervirulent strains from other types of C. difficile.
