Three gastrointestinal bacteria. One TaqPath panel.
Transition to molecular testing with the new TaqPath Enteric Bacterial Select Panel.
The TaqPath Enteric Bacterial Select Panel is a highly sensitive testing solution for detecting and differentiating common gastrointestinal (GI) bacteria: Salmonella spp.; Shigella spp./enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC)*; and Campylobacter jejuni, Campylobacter coli, and Campylobacter upsaliensis**.
* Shigella spp./EIEC are undifferentiated.
** Campylobacter jejuni, Campylobacter coli, and Campylobacter upsaliensis
Benefits of molecular testing
Offering high sensitivity and fast time-to-results, this powerful PCR panel makes it easy and affordable for you to adopt a molecular diagnostic CE-IVD kit for gastrointestinal testing. As the technological migration from culture to molecular testing continues, the need for expanded molecular testing remains beneficial for at-risk populations, including children, older adults, people with weakened immune systems, and travelers.¹ These populations are often at higher risk of severe disease and hospitalization, and need clear answers. PCR testing is designed to deliver accurate results and aid in differential diagnosis, including coinfections, to assist with treatment or other patient management decisions.
