Description
Creative Biogene RSV real time RT-PCR kit is used for the detection of respiratory syncytial virus in nasal and pharyngeal secretions by using real time PCR systems. The kit contains a specific ready-to-use system for the detection of the RSV (for genotype A and B) by Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) in the real-time PCR system. The master contains reagents for the specific amplification of RSV RNA. The reaction is done in one step real time RT-PCR. The first step is a reverse transcription (RT), during which RSV RNA is transcribed into cDNA. Afterwards, a thermostable DNA polymerase is used to amplify the specific gene fragments by means of polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Fluorescence is emitted and measured by the real time systems' optical unit during PCR
