Streptococcus equi / Strangles

ID Gene Lyo™ Strangles Discrimination Triplex

PCR

Real-time PCR kit for the qualitative detection of Streptococcus equi subsp. equi and subsp. zooepidemicus DNA on various samples (see specifications).

The ID Gene Lyo™ Strangles Discrimination Triplex kit is a qualitative real-time PCR kit that simultaneously detect :

  • a target sequence specific to the Streptococcus equi subsp. equi genome in the FAM™ channel,
  • a target sequence specific to the Streptococcus equi subsp. zooepidemicus genome in the VIC®/HEX™ channel,
  • a sequence specific to the Exogenous Non-Target Positive Control NTPC-EXO2 in the Cy5 Channel.

This kit can be used on nasal or nasopharyngeal swabs, guttural pouch wash samples, nasopharyngeal, bronchoalveolar or tracheal wash samples and organs for aborted foetuses (lung, liver, placenta).

The ID Gene Lyo™ Strangles Discrimination Triplex kit is provided with an amplification reaction mixture in freeze-dried format, for greater stability over time and improved resistance to transport conditions.
It is transported at room temperature, making shipping simpler, more economical and more environmentally friendly.

Key benefits
  • Advanced Triplex qPCR kit for accurate detection and discrimination of Streptococcus equi subsp. equi and Streptococcus equi subsp. zooepidemicus
  • Integrated exogenous internal control to monitor extraction performance and identify potential PCR inhibition
  • Validated across multiple equine sample matrices including: nasal / nasophyngeal swabs, guttural pouch washes, nasopharyngeal, bronchoalveolar or tracheal wash samples and organs from aborted fetuses
  • Ultra-fast workflow : direct lysis without purification in just 10 min and amplification within 35 min – one of the fastest protocols available on the market
  • Optional Positive Extraction Control available separately to verify the efficiency of the complete PCR workflow, from extraction to amplification
Convenient and easy to use
  • Standardized IDvet qPCR workflow shared across all IDvet assays, allowing simultaneous testing for additional respiratory diseases such as Equine Influenza and Equine Herpesvirus infections within the same run (compatible with ref. IDFLUAMSL and IDEHV1/4L)
  • Blue-colored Amplification Reaction Mix for easy visual verification of pipetting accuracy
  • Ready-to-use, freeze-dried reagents shipped at room temperature (no costs for shipping with dry-ice)
  • Extended shelf life (3 years), making the kit particularly suitable for laboratories processing low sample volumes or running tests intermittently
