CLASS A BETA-LACTAMASE (CTX-M-GRP2) RESISTANCE

A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Class A beta-lactamase (CTX-M-Grp2) Resistance

CTX-M-GRP2 Beta-lactamases are enzymes that confer resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics such as penicillins and cephalosporins. These enzymes are produced by various Gram-negative bacteria, including Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae, and their presence can lead to treatment failure in infections caused by these bacteria. Detection of CTX-M-GRP2 beta-lactamases is crucial in clinical settings to guide appropriate antibiotic therapy, prevent the spread of resistant bacteria, and improve patient outcomes.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect CTX-M-GRP2 Beta-lactamases allows for rapid and sensitive identification of this antibiotic resistance marker. Early detection of these enzymes in clinical samples can aid healthcare providers in choosing the most effective antibiotic treatment, reducing the risk of treatment failure and the spread of resistant bacteria. Additionally, timely detection can contribute to overall antimicrobial stewardship efforts and help mitigate the impact of antibiotic resistance in healthcare settings.
