A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Class B beta-lacatamase (BlaVIM)
Class B Beta-lactamase (BLAVIM) is a type of antibiotic resistance marker commonly found in bacteria such as Acinetobacter baumannii, contributing to high resistance rates in human healthcare settings. The ability of BLAVIM to hydrolyze beta-lactam antibiotics poses a serious threat in the medical sector, leading to treatment failures and increased healthcare costs.
YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect BLAVIM allows for rapid and accurate identification of this antibiotic resistance marker, enabling healthcare professionals to make informed treatment decisions and prevent the spread of resistant bacteria. Early detection of BLAVIM is crucial in guiding appropriate antibiotic therapy and improving patient outcomes, ultimately reducing the burden of antibiotic resistance in clinical settings.
