Listeria monocytogenes PCR Detection Kit

Listeria monocytogenes PCR Detection Kit    

Listeria monocytogenes is one of the most virulent food borne bacterial pathogens and causes a serious illness listeriosis. The disease primarily affects older adults, pregnant women, newborns, and adults with weakened immune systems and has a  20-30% mortality rate. The manifestations  include septicemia, meningitis, encephalitis, corneal ulcer, pneumonia, and intrauterine or cervical infections in pregnant women, which may result in spontaneous abortion or stillbirth.

The Atila L.monocytogenes test kit is designed for rapid qualitative detection of L.monocytogenes DNA isolated from food samples using a standard enrichment procedure. The kit provides a PCR master mix which contains reagents and enzymes for PCR amplification; and a primer mix which are specific to the L.monocytogenes genome. In addition, the kit provides an internal control to identify possible PCR inhibition or sample preparation failure.
