AmpC beta-lactamase, Class B (NDM/VIM/IMP) & Methicillin (mecA) resistance Multiplex

Cat no. YSL-qPX-EC-AC.CB.MA-100

Antibiotic Resistance, qPCR, Multiplex

A multiplex qPCR kit for the detection of AmpC beta-lactamase, Class B (NDM/VIM/IMP) & Methicillin (mecA) resistance

Staphylococcus Methicillin (mecA) resistance is a major concern in the healthcare sector due to its ability to cause difficult-to-treat infections in humans. This antibiotic-resistant bacterium can lead to serious health complications such as skin infections, pneumonia, and sepsis, impacting both patients and healthcare systems worldwide.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect Staphylococcus Methicillin (mecA) resistance allows for rapid and accurate identification of this pathogen, enabling healthcare providers to initiate appropriate treatment strategies promptly. Early detection is crucial in preventing the spread of antibiotic resistance and reducing the risk of severe infections, ultimately improving patient outcomes and reducing healthcare costs.
