VetMAX™ MastiType Micro4 Kit
Real-Time PCR
Mastitis pathogen
Product reference : A39235
The VetMAX MastiType Micro4 Kit enables rapid, accurate detection of the four major contagious mastitis-causing pathogens in bovine milk using real-time PCR amplification of DNA unique to each pathogen in a single reaction.
The advanced technology of VetMAX MastiType real-time PCR assays offers several advantages:
• Designed for laboratories requiring high-throughput processing methods
• Faster results—typical time from sample to result is 2.5–3 hours, compared to up to 10 days for a culture
• High accuracy—high sensitivity and specificity for all individual pathogens
• Identifies and quantifies DNA, allowing detection of viable, dead, and growth-inhibited pathogens
• Allows use of preserved milk samples, eliminating the need for cooling during sample transportation
• Can be integrated into milk recording programs using preserved milk
• Validated with convenient MagMAX CORE nucleic acid purification method that does not require aspiration and centrifugation
The VetMAX MastiType Micro4 assay detects these four pathogens in a single PCR reaction:
• Staphylococcus aureus
• Streptococcus agalactiae
• Mycoplasma bovis
• Streptococcus uberis
