A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Giardia duodenalis
Giardia duodenalis is a common parasitic protist that causes the infection giardiasis in humans and animals. Symptoms include diarrhea, abdominal pain, and bloating, and the infection can be transmitted through contaminated food and water. Detection of Giardia duodenalis is critical in the human, veterinary, and water sectors to prevent the spread of the parasite and the associated diseases.
YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect Giardia duodenalis allows for sensitive and specific detection of the parasite, enabling early diagnosis and treatment. Rapid detection of this target is essential to prevent the spread of giardiasis in the community and ensure public health and safety.
