A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Human immunodeficiency virus 2

HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS 2 (HIV-2): HIV-2 is a less common but similar virus to HIV-1, causing AIDS in humans. It is mainly found in West Africa and can be transmitted through sexual contact, blood transfusions, and mother-to-child transmission. Early detection of HIV-2 is crucial to prevent the progression to AIDS and reduce the spread of the virus in the human population.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect HIV-2 allows for sensitive and specific detection of the virus, enabling early diagnosis and monitoring of infected individuals. Timely detection of HIV-2 can help healthcare professionals provide appropriate treatment and prevent further transmission of the virus, ultimately improving public health outcomes and reducing the economic burden of managing HIV-2 infections.
