A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Cutibacterium acnes

Cutibacterium acnes, also known as Propionibacterium acnes, is a common skin bacterium associated with acne vulgaris in humans. It can also cause infections in prosthetic devices and joint prostheses, leading to significant clinical impact. Early detection of C. acnes is crucial in dermatology and orthopedics to prevent complications and provide appropriate treatment.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect Cutibacterium acnes allows for sensitive and specific identification of the bacterium, enabling early diagnosis and tailored treatment plans. Rapid detection of C. acnes can improve patient outcomes, reduce antibiotic resistance, and decrease healthcare costs associated with recurrent infections.
