TrueMark STI and vaginal health research products

Vaginal_2x

Real-time PCR products with high analytical sensitivity are needed to support laboratory research to study outbreaks and determine disease etiology where pathogens are similar.   

Applied Biosystems TrueMark real-time qPCR solutions are part of a sample-to-results workflow. Benefits include the ability to:

  • Detect and differentiate multiple pathogens
  • Obtain reliable real-time PCR results—Accurate, sensitive and specific
  • Select from multiple format options to suit your testing capacity—Choose from single tube assays, 96- or 384-well plates, cards, or OpenArray plates
  • Order individual assays, predesigned panels or customize your own—Select from a catalogue of >600 assays targeting pathogens or resistance genes
  • Reduce time-to-implementation—Accelerate and streamline your validation process with Analytical Validation Consulting Services

Our portfolio of real-time PCR sexually transmitted infections and vaginal health research products are used to analyze a range of pathogens including viruses, bacterias, parasites and fungi, with high analytical sensitivity.

These solutions are efficient, generate informative results, and solve many of the challenges associatedwith the use of immunoassay-based, culture-based, and other molecular research methods.
