Monkeypox Virus (MPXV) Fast Real Time PCR Kit

The monkeypox virus is a double-stranded DNA virus from the same family Poxviridae as the variola virus. Humans are infected with the monkeypox virus mainly through bites by infected animals or direct contact with blood, body fluid, and lesion exudate of infected animals. The virus is often transmitted from animals to humans and occasionally from humans to humans. Main clinical manifestations include high fever, headache, back pain, general malaise, cough, and lymphadenectasis, with generalized rashes similar to those in variola and occasionally abdominal pain. Monkeypox is a self-limiting illness, with symptoms usually lasting 2-4 weeks. The case fatality rate is 0%-11% in the general population and about 3%-6% in children recently.

The Bioperfectus Monkeypox Virus (MPXV) Fast Real Time PCR kit, adopts real-time PCR and hydrolysis probe techniques to realize the qualitative detection of nucleic acids of one or more pathogens in one reaction tube. It is intended for the qualitative detection of monkeypox virus nucleic acids in human specimens such as tonsillar swab, nasopharyngeal swab, serum, whole blood, lesion exudate and scab.
