GPCRs

Detection by using qPCR of species of the genus Leishmania (Leishmania major, L. tropica, L. infantum, L. chagasi, L. donovani, L. mexicana venezuelensis, L. aethiopica, L. amazonensis, L. mexicana amazonensis, L. turanica, L. gerbilli, L. panamensis, L. braziliensis, etc.). Leishmania is a genus of Trypanosomatidprotozoa and is the parasite responsible for the disease leishmaniasis. Their primary hosts are vertebrates; Leishmania commonly infects hyraxes, canids, rodents, and humans.

Leptospira interrogans detection test kit by using qPCR. Leptospira interrogans is the causative agent of leptospirosis that can affect animals and humans, and is considered the most widespread zoonotic disease. Without treatment, leptospirosis can lead to kidney damage, meningitis, liver failure, respiratory distress, and in severe cases even death. The spread of the disease can be attributed to L. interrogans thriving in soil and water without a host for extended periods.

Leptospira species detection test kit by using qPCR. Leptospira is a genus of bacteria that causes Leptospirosis (also known as Weil’s syndrome, canicola fever, canefield fever, nanukayami fever, 7-day fever, Rat Catcher’s Yellows, Fort Bragg fever, black jaundice, and Pretibial fever) and affects humans as well as other animals. The infection is commonly transmitted to humans by allowing water that has been contaminated by animal urine to come in contact with unhealed breaks in the skin, the eyes, or the mucous membranes.

Listeria innocua detection test kit by using qPCR. Listeria innocua is harmless to other organisms. It lacks the 10-kb virulence locus, present in L. monocytogenes, that is needed for pathogenicity. It is widely found in the environment (such as soil) and food sources. Can survive in extreme pH and temperature, as well as high salt concentration.

Listeria ivanovii detection test kit by using qPCR. Listeria ivanovii it behaves like L. monocytogenes but is found almost exclusively in ruminants (mainly sheep). Infection with L. ivanovii can lead to septicemic disease with enteritis, neonatal sepsis and even abortion. Pregnant ruminants are therefore most at risk. Human zoonosis is described but extremely rare.

Detection test kit of the species Listeria monocytogenes by using qPCR. Due to Listeria monocytogenes pathogenicity cuases meningitis in newborns (acquired transvaginally), pregnant mothers are often advised not to eat soft cheeses such as Brie, Camembert, feta, and fresh white cheese, which may be contaminated with and permit growth of L. monocytogenes. It is the third-most-common cause of meningitis in newborns.

Detection by using qPCR of species of the virus causing Lumpy skin disease (LSDV). Lumpy skin disease mainly affects cattle and zebus but has also been seen in giraffes, African buffalo, and impalas. It is spread by biting insects.

Detection test kit of Mycoplasma gallisepticum and the vaccine strain 6/85 by using qPCR. Mycoplasma gallisepticum is the causative agent of chronic respiratory disease in chickens and infectious sinusitis in turkeys, chickens, game birds, pigeons, and passerine birds of all ages. M. gallisepticum strain 6/85 is the most widely used live vaccine to immunize flocks against Mycoplasma gallisepticum, thus differentiation from pathogenic strains is essential for disease control on farms.

Macrorhabdus ornithogaster detection test kit by using qPCR. Macrorhabdus ornithogaster, also known as avian gastric yeast, that can infect many species of birds worldwide. The fungus affects a wide range of bird species, from budgerigars to ostriches. Affected birds typically lose weight and die from malnourishment-related complications.

Maedi-Visna virus detection test kit by using qPCR. Maedi-Visna is a chronic viral disease prevalent in adult sheep, but rarely can be found in certain species of goat. It causes encephalitis and chronic pneumonitis. It is known as Visna when found in the brain, and Maedi when infecting the lungs. The natural transmission of Maedi-Visna virus is mostly by the respiratory route, but also to newborn lambs by colostrum and milk.

Detection test kit of Maize and 35S promoter, by using duplex qPCR. The kit detects the presence of 35S and Maize-specific DNA sequences in all kinds of foods. The Cauliflower Mosaic Virus 35S promoter is present in all soy and maize genetically modified organisms (GMO) approved in European Union, and the majority of GMO events approved in other countries.

Detection test kit of meat from mammals, by using qPCR. Food fraud is gaining interest due to global repercussions on economic, social and health risks. Available detection techniques cannot detect more than one kind of adulterant or are ineffective at testing processed food. Mammals Test allows mammal meat detection by solving disadvantages usually present in other detection methods.
