Rodent infestation PCR panel
Rodent infestation test panel
Test
code: P0057 -
Rodent infestation panel. Includes ultrasensitive
qualitative real time PCR detection and differentiation of the
following common rodentborne pathogens using real time PCR
protocols:
PCR testing is
faster and more cost-effective than culture-based testing for
these pathogens. Zoologix performs this test panel using
well-established, highly specific, ultrasensitive real time PCR
protocols to minimize the possibility of false positives while
maximizing detection of pathogens present.
Test results
are presented in a concise, signed, easy-to-read PDF report
optimized for documentation and recordkeeping.
Utilities:
-
Check for these rodent borne pathogens in contaminated
facilities, buildings, soil, ventilation systems, or goods
-
Selection of appropriate remediation regimens
-
Check for post-remediation absence of these pathogens
-
Early prevention of the spread of these pathogens in facilities
-
Help minimize human exposure to these pathogens
Specimen requirements: 1 rodent fecal pellet,
or environmental surface swab (cotton or synthetic tip) or swipe
pad (approx 2" x 2"), or 2 ml of soil
Contact Zoologix if advice is needed to determine an appropriate specimen type for a specific diagnostic application. For specimen types not listed here, please contact Zoologix to confirm specimen acceptability and shipping instructions.
For all
specimen types, if there will be a delay in shipping, or during
very warm weather, refrigerate specimens until shipped and ship
with a cold pack unless more stringent shipping requirements are
specified. Frozen specimens should be shipped so as to remain
frozen in transit. See shipping
instructions for more information.
