Sulfonamides (sul1/2/3) & Macrolide (MefA) Resistance Multiplex

Cat no. YSL-qPX-EC-Sul.MefA-100

A multiplex qPCR kit for the detection of Sulfonamides (sul1/2/3) & Macrolide (MefA) Resistance

Macrolide (mefA) resistance is a common phenomenon seen in bacterial pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae, with implications in both human health and veterinary medicine. Failure to detect this resistance marker early can lead to treatment failures and the spread of resistant strains, causing serious infections that can be difficult to treat. It is crucial to identify and monitor this resistance marker to guide appropriate antibiotic therapy and prevent the spread of resistant strains in clinical settings.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect Macrolide (mefA) resistance allows for sensitive and specific detection of this important antibiotic resistance marker. Early detection of this resistance gene can help in guiding optimal antibiotic therapy, preventing treatment failures, and controlling the spread of resistant strains. By using our qPCR kit, clinicians and researchers can efficiently monitor the prevalence of Macrolide (mefA) resistance, leading to better patient outcomes and improved antimicrobial stewardship.
