Enteropathogenic E. coli

Cat no. YSL-qP-EC-EPEC-100

Human, qPCR, SinglePlex

A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Enteropathogenic E. coli

Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) is a common pathogen causing diarrhea in both humans and animals, particularly in the food and water sectors. Symptoms include watery diarrhea, abdominal pain, and vomiting, with severe cases leading to dehydration and even death if not treated promptly. Early detection of EPEC is crucial to prevent outbreaks and reduce the spread of infection, especially in vulnerable populations such as children and the elderly.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect Enteropathogenic E. coli allows for rapid and accurate identification of the pathogen, enabling early intervention and control measures to be implemented to prevent further transmission. By detecting EPEC quickly, YouSeq's kit helps to reduce the impact of the infection on public health and the economy by minimizing the severity and duration of outbreaks, ultimately saving lives and resources.
