| Features and Benefits: | • Results available as fast as 8 hours for 25 g samples / 10 hours for composite 375 g samples. • Positive samples can be confirmed for stx genes in an additional 2 hours with GDS Shiga Toxin Genes (O157) assay (PN 71005BC). • Validated for ground beef, beef trim, leafy greens, juices, and sprout irrigation water. • Features innovative PickPen® immunomagnetic separation (IMS) for additional specificity and fast time to results. • Simplified sample prep does not require heating blocks or preparation of reagents. |
| General description: | Assurance GDS®, genetic detection system, for E. coli O157:H7 Tq is an automated nucleic acid amplification system for the detection of E. colii O157:H7 in food and environmental samples. The proprietary PickPen® IMS-based sample preparation procedure quickly and effectively captures E. coli O157:H7, separating the pathogen from inhibitory background materials ensuring valid PCR reactions for all sample types, including challenging food and environmental samples. Assurance GDS® PCR technology provides two additional levels of specificity through the use of both highly specific primers and probes to ensure accurate detection of E. coli O157:H7. |
