Real-time PCR kits for the qualitative and quantitative detection of common pathogens that put these patient groups at risk


Immunosuppressed and immunocompromised persons, including solid organ and hematopoietic stem cell and tissue transplant recipients, or persons undergoing cancer treatment or with unsuppressed HIV infection, are at elevated risk of complications from infectious diseases. Such persons require prompt diagnosis and frequent viral load monitoring to guide prophylaxis treatment and care. Academic medical centers and hospital clinical testing laboratories require a comprehensive testing menu of pathogens commonly associated with these patients that deliver accurate and timely results. The TaqPath™ Menu transplant portfolio supports the testing needs of transplant centers with a range of CE-IVD-marked, reliable infectious disease assays specifically designed to address the common pathogens that put these patient groups at risk. Some of these targets include CMV, EBV, BKV, HSV-1/HSV-2, Adenovirus, Aspergillus and several others. 


Rely on a comprehensive portfolio of Applied Biosystems™ TaqPath Menu Transplant and Immunocompromised Kits

 The real-time PCR (qPCR) assays could be used for:

  • Aiding in the diagnosis and management of transplant patients
  • Measuring viral load to inform the need for treatment
  • Monitoring a patient’s response to therapy
