BABESIA MICROTI

A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Babesia microti

Babesia microti is a protozoan parasite that causes babesiosis, a malaria-like illness in humans, transmitted by the bite of infected ticks. Babesiosis is particularly prevalent in the northeastern United States and is also a concern in Europe and Asia. Detection of Babesia microti is crucial in the human health sector as early diagnosis and treatment can prevent severe complications such as anemia and organ failure. Failure to detect this pathogen early can lead to potentially life-threatening consequences.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect Babesia microti allows for sensitive and specific detection of the parasite, aiding in early diagnosis and timely treatment. This rapid and accurate detection can help prevent the progression of babesiosis and improve patient outcomes, reducing the burden on healthcare systems and ultimately saving lives.
