Abacus dx, a leading provider of medical diagnostic solutions, has announced the launch of the VIASURE range of molecular PCR detection kits, now available from CerTest. The new range includes solutions for several viral and bacterial diseases, including Chikungunya, Dengue, Japanese Encephalitis, Syphilis, and Zika.VIASURE PCR detection kits are CE-IVD certified, providing reliable and accurate results in a short amount of time. These kits use real-time PCR technology to detect specific virus and bacterial DNA or RNA sequences in patient samples, making them an effective solution for diagnosing infectious diseases.One of the key benefits of VIASURE PCR detection kits is their ability to perform multiplex testing, allowing the detection of multiple pathogens in a single sample. This feature makes VIASURE kits particularly useful in areas where multiple infectious diseases coexist, as it can reduce the cost and time required for testing.The VIASURE Syphilis PCR kit, which detects the presence of Treponema pallidum, the bacterium responsible for Syphilis, is a particularly noteworthy addition to the range. Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection that affects millions of people worldwide each year. If left untreated, Syphilis can lead to severe health problems, including blindness, dementia, and even death.The VIASURE Syphilis PCR kit is one of the first commercial PCR-based detection kits for Syphilis to receive CE-IVD certification. Its high sensitivity and specificity make it an effective tool for diagnosing Syphilis, especially during early stages where traditional screening tests may not yet detect the infection.The new range of VIASURE PCR detection kits is an excellent addition to Abacus dx's existing portfolio of diagnostic solutions. According to the company's Managing Director, Tony Horder, the addition of VIASURE to our product range demonstrates our commitment to providing the most advanced molecular diagnostic solutions to healthcare professionals across Australia and New Zealand.CerTest, the distributor of VIASURE PCR detection kits, is an established provider of diagnostic products in Europe, offering a range of in vitro diagnostic solutions for infectious diseases, genetics, and oncology. The partnership between Abacus dx and CerTest marks an important step in expanding the availability of advanced molecular diagnostic solutions in the Asia-Pacific region.In conclusion, the launch of the new VIASURE range of molecular PCR detection kits provides healthcare professionals with reliable and accurate diagnostic solutions for significant infectious diseases. With their real-time PCR technology, multiplex testing capabilities, and high sensitivity and specificity, these kits have the potential to improve patient outcomes significantly. The partnership between Abacus dx and CerTest is an essential development, paving the way for the introduction of advanced molecular diagnostic solutions in the Asia-Pacific region.
