Coxiella burnetti PCR Detection Kit
Q fever is a worldwide disease with acute and chronic stages caused by the bacteria Coxiella burnetii (Legionellales; Coxiellaceae). C. burnetii appears cause disease in humans and laboratory animals such as rats and guinea pigs. However, it can induce abortions in sheep and goats, and causes reproductive problems in bovines. Sheep, goats, and cattle are the primary reservoirs although a variety of species may be infected. Microorganisms are excreted in milk, feces, and urine of infected animals. During birthing the microorganisms are shed in high numbers within the placenta and amniotic fluids. Infection of humans usually occurs by inhalation of these microorganisms from air that contains airborne barnyard dust contaminated by birth fluids, dried placental material, and excreta of infected animals. Other modes of transmission to humans, including tick bites, ingestion of unpasteurized milk or dairy products, and human to human transmission.
VetPCR? C. burnetti Detection Kit is the direct detection of Coxiella burnetti on the basis of a genetic database, so it can diagnose very fast and accurately. It can amplify only specific gene using the PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) method, and take only 3 hours for detection. Therefore, it is a very fast, accurate, reliable technique.
