Virus in Humans

Human Influenza type A and B virus detection test kit by using qPCR. Influenza is an infectious disease caused by an influenza virus. Symptoms can be mild to severe and include high fever, runny nose, sore throat, muscle and joint pain, headache, coughing, and feeling tired. Three of the four types of influenza viruses affect humans: type A, type B, and type C, but the responsible for the seasonal flu are main types A and B. This assay can be used to simultaneously detect the causative agents of the seasonal flu, HIAV, and HIBV.

Detection test kit of Human parvovirus B19 species by using qPCR. Human parvovirus B19, sometimes referred to as erythrovirus B19 or B19 virus. Parvovirus B19 is most known for causing disease in the pediatric population; however, it can also affect adults. It is the classic cause of the childhood rash called fifth disease or erythema infectiosum, or “slapped cheek syndrome.”

Detection test kit of Human T-lymphoptropic virus type 1 by using qPCR. The Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is a human retrovirus that is known to cause a type of cancer; referred to as adult T-cell leukemia and lymphoma (ATL), and a demyelinating disease called HTLV-I associated myelopathy/Tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP).

Detection test kit of MERS-Coronavirus by using qPCR. The Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV), termed HCoV-EMC/2012, and novel coronavirus 2012. It was first reported in 2012 after genome sequencing of a virus isolated from sputum samples from patients who fell ill in a 2012 outbreak of new flu.

Detection test kit of Puumala virus by using qPCR. Puumala virus is a species of Hantavirus. Humans infected with the virus may develop a hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) known as a nephropathic epidemic. Because the bank vole (Myodes glareolus) acts as a reservoir for the virus, nephropathic epidemic cases track with the vole population in a three- to a four-year cycle.

Rubella virus detection test kit by using qPCR. Rubella virus is the pathogenic agent of the disease Rubella, also known as German measles or three-day measles, a common childhood infection. When infection occurs during the first weeks of pregnancy is the cause of congenital rubella syndrome. Humans are the only known host of this virus.

West Nile virus detection test kit by using qPCR. West Nile virus transmission is via various species of mosquitoes, which are the prime vector, with birds being the most commonly infected animal and serving as the prime reservoir host. Humans, horses and other mammals can be infected.

Zika virus detection test kit by using qPCR. The infection, known as Zika fever, often causes no or only mild symptoms, similar to a mild form of dengue fever. Additionally, there is evidence that Zika fever in pregnant women can cause abnormal brain development in their fetuses by mother-to-child transmission, which may result in miscarriage or microcephaly. Transmission usually is through Aedes mosquitoes, but has been reported the transmission by infected blood or sexual contact.
