ViPrimePLUS Human Metapneumovirus RT-qPCR Kit

Description
The ViPrimePLUS Human Metapneumovirus RT-qPCR Kit is a Taqman probe-based real-time PCR assay for the detection of Human Metapneumovirus genome in clinical samples (e.g. sputum, nasopharyngeal aspirate and throat swab).
Human Metapneumovirus (hMPV) is a single negative-strand RNA virus that causes lower respiratory tract infection in human. It is classified into 2 major groups (i.e. A and B) and 4 subgroups. Following behind respiratory syncytial virus, hMPV is the second most commonly identified cause of pediatric lower respiratory illness. In a study, hMPV infection was found in 10% of the lung transplant recipients with acute respiratory tract infections, thus signifying the higher risk of severe hMPV illness in transplant patients. Immunocompromised patients are also susceptible to the severe disease.
ViPrimePLUS Human Metapneumovirus RT-qPCR Kit is intended for research use only.
