Cowingene Group B Streptococcus Detection Kit (Liquid)
The Cowingene Group B Streptococcus Detection Kit (GBS Detection Kit) is intended for the in vitro qualitative detection of Group B Streptococcus (GBS) in female vaginal swab samples. It is recommended to get screened for GBS bacteria during the 36th or 37th week of each pregnancy. This is one of the best ways to prevent GBS disease in the newborn's first week of life.
The GBS Detection Kit adopts the method of PCR amplification combined with fluorescent probes, to select the conserved regions specific to Group B Streptococcus as the detection target genes, and an endogenous internal control is introduced as a quality control of the kit.
