EBV PCR test
MGB Alert® EBV
Compatible with most open channel platforms
Epstein-Barr virus is the cause of post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) in immunosuppressed transplant recipients, and manifests as serious systemic symptoms. EBV is also the cause of mononucleosis in immunocompetent people. Our analyte specific reagents for EBV detection and identification by EBV PCR offer accurate and reliable results.
Our analyte specific reagents§ feature:
MGB probes | DSQ probes | Eclipse Dark Quencher | Duplex Stabilizing Quencher | Pleiades probe chemistry | AquaPhluor® Dyes | Superbases
Molecular detection & identification of EBV
Our EBV PCR tests employ cutting-edge molecular detection and identification methods, featuring MGB Alert® EBV technology. Leveraging MGB probes, DSQ probes, Eclipse Dark Quencher, and Duplex Stabilizing Quencher, these advanced techniques elevate specificity and sensitivity in identifying EBV strains. The Pleiades probe chemistry, paired with AquaPhluor® Dyes and superbases, ensures the delivery of accurate and reliable results. MGB Alert® EBV PCR stands out for its robustness and efficiency, presenting an advanced diagnostic solution for EBV infections. The integration of Eclipse Dark Quencher and Duplex Stabilizing Quencher further refines the assay, establishing it as a potent molecular tool for precise EBV diagnosis.

INFECTIOUS DISEASE TEST PORTFOLIO
Real-Time PCR testing for laboratories
ELITechGroup MDx set an industry standard in real-time PCR with the introduction of minor groove binder (MGB) probe technology, featured in our MGB Alert® products. MGB probe technology has long been the gold standard for hybridization probes that allow for melt curve analysis. Adding to our legacy of innovation, we now offer DSQ Alert™ probe technology, an evolution in MGB probe chemistry. Our DSQ Alert reagents feature our newest proprietary duplex stabilizing quencher chemistry in hydrolysis probes, offering enhanced signal-to-noise fluorescence and DNA duplex stability. All test reagents may be used on ELITechGroup MDx proprietary instrument systems and on most open channel platforms.
