GI Parasitic PLUS ELITe MGB® Kit

Gastrointestinal parasitic infections, impacting the digestive system, manifest through various symptoms, including diarrhea and abdominal cramps.
Those most vulnerable, such as children, the elderly, and individuals with compromised immune systems, are at an increased risk. Symptoms like fever, nausea, and vomiting significantly affect patients’ well-being, with dehydration being a notable concern, especially in severe cases requiring immediate attention. Molecular diagnostic methods play a pivotal role in investigating these infections and tailoring appropriate treatments. The GI Parasitic PLUS ELITe MGB® Kit, a qualitative multiplex nucleic acids Real-Time PCR assay, detects and identifies genomic DNA from pathogens like Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica, Cryptosporidium spp., Encephalitozoon spp., Enterocytozoon bieneusi. Validated under IVDR standards using human stool specimens, it integrates seamlessly with ELITe InGenius® and ELITe BeGenius®, offering fully automated sample-to-result solutions to enhance clinical decision-making and patient care.
