Bacterial infections remain a major global health challenge, requiring accurate and rapid diagnostic methods. Traditional detection techniques can be slow and cumbersome, often relying on lengthy culture times. Innovative approaches with high specificity and sensitivity are needed to improve detection speed and reliability. This technology addresses that need by targeting a widely conserved bacterial marker, enabling efficient and precise bacterial identification across various sectors.
This patented nucleic acid based diagnostic method utilizes primers, probes, and kits specifically designed to detect identify a wide range important bacterial organismsincluding Legionella pneumophila, Acinetobacter baumannii, Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Mycobacterium avium, Mycobacterium intracellulare, Haemophilus influenzae, Listeria grayi and Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which are associated with severe respiratory and systemic infections. The invention provides both qualitative and quantitative results, offering a versatile platform for bacterial detection.
