A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Dirofilaria repens

Dirofilaria repens, also known as canine heartworm, is a parasitic roundworm that can cause significant health issues in dogs and occasionally in humans. This pathogen primarily affects the veterinary sector, with symptoms including coughing, fatigue, and weight loss in dogs. Early detection of Dirofilaria repens is crucial to prevent serious complications such as heart failure and respiratory distress.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect Dirofilaria repens allows for sensitive and specific identification of the pathogen in infected animals, enabling early intervention and treatment. Rapid detection of this target can prevent further spread of the parasite, reducing the economic burden on pet owners and veterinary clinics. Early diagnosis also ensures timely treatment and management of the disease, ultimately improving the overall health and well-being of infected animals.
