Product Overview (PDF 1.3 MB)

Two powerful assays for the rapid diagnosis of invasive fungal infections, aiding in the selection of appropriate treatment options

MycoGENIE Aspergillus spp. – Mucorales spp. is a unique real-time PCR designed to rapidly distinguish between Aspergillus and Mucorales species from a single DNA extract.

MycoGENIE Aspergillus fumigatus Real-Time PCR specifically detects A. fumigatus in its azole-sensitive and azole-resistant forms.

Benefits

• Rapid differentiation between a Mucorales infection and an Aspergillus infection: enables initiation of prompt, life-saving treatment
• Adjustment of medication for azole-resistant A. fumigatus species: reduces treatment failure due to resistance

Both assays have been validated using the same sample material and therefore allow for a comprehensive analysis from a single DNA extract.
