A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Mycobacterium kansasii
Mycobacterium kansasii is a slow-growing, acid-fast bacterium that can cause pulmonary disease in humans. Symptoms may include a chronic cough, weight loss, and fatigue. Early detection of M. kansasii is crucial in the human health sector to prevent the progression of the disease and potential transmission to others.
YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect Mycobacterium kansasii allows for rapid and accurate identification of the pathogen, aiding in timely treatment and management of the infection. Early detection can help reduce the risk of complications and improve patient outcomes, highlighting the importance of sensitive and specific detection methods in the clinical setting.
