A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Legionella SPP

Legionella spp: Legionella is a group of bacteria that can cause Legionnaires' disease, a severe form of pneumonia, and Pontiac fever, a milder flu-like illness. It is commonly found in water systems, such as those in buildings and cooling towers, and can be transmitted via inhalation of contaminated water droplets. Detection of Legionella is crucial in the water and healthcare sectors to prevent outbreaks and ensure public safety.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect Legionella spp allows for rapid and accurate identification of the bacteria in water samples, enabling timely intervention to prevent the spread of the pathogen and potential outbreaks of Legionnaires' disease. Early detection can help reduce the risk of illness and associated healthcare costs, as well as protect the public and workers in high-risk environments from exposure to Legionella.
