| Application: | Assurance® GDS Shiga Toxin Genes (O157) Tq is suitable for the detection of Shiga Toxin producing E. coli O157:H7 in foods, ingredients, and environmental samples. |
| Compatibility: | BioControl GDS |
| Components: | • Shiga Toxin Genes Amplification Tubes Tq • O157 Concentration Reagent • Resuspension Buffer Tq • Wash Solution |
| Features and Benefits: | • Sequential approach to detecting Top STEC. Following sample preparation with IMS against the Top 6 or Top 7 O groups, samples are analyzed for the presence of eae with the GDS Top 6 or 7 STEC (eae) assay. Positive samples are subsequently analyzed for Shiga Toxin genes with the Assurance® GDS Shiga Toxin Genes (Top 6 or Top 7) assay • Confirm Assurance® GDS E. coli O157:H7 positives samples with Assurance® GDS Shiga Toxin Genes (O157) assay • Single-step 10-18 h enrichment in mEHEC; enrichment media common to all BioControl methods for E.coli O157:H7, Shiga Toxin genes, and Top STEC |
| General description: | The Assurance® GDS Shiga Toxin Genes (O157) Tq is an automated nucleic acid amplification system for the detection of Shiga Toxin producing E. coli O157:H7. The Shiga Toxin Genes (O157) assay is designed for use in conjunction with Assurance® GDS E. coli O157:H7 Tq assay to detect shiga toxin genes (stx1 and stx2) present in presumptive positive E. coli O157:H7 samples. |
