CLASS A BETA-LACTAMASE (CTX-M) RESISTANCE

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

CTX-M beta-lactamase resistance is a common mechanism found in bacteria such as E. coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae, leading to resistance against beta-lactam antibiotics. This resistance marker is of particular concern in the human healthcare sector as it can cause serious infections with limited treatment options if not detected early, leading to increased morbidity and mortality rates.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect CTX-M beta-lactamase resistance allows for sensitive and specific detection of this resistance marker, enabling early identification of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in clinical samples. By detecting CTX-M early, healthcare providers can implement appropriate treatment strategies, prevent the spread of resistant bacteria, and ultimately improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.
