FAQs

What instruments can I use with the assay kits?

Our Arbovirus assay kits are pre-validated using the QIAGEN QIAcuity® and Bio-Rad QX600™ digital PCR systems, as well as the Bio-Rad CFX96™ and Thermo QuantStudio 5™ RT-PCR systems with potential adaptability to other multichannel RT-PCR machines. Please contact us with any questions regarding platform use. Our staff scientists are here to help.

What sample types can be used?

For use with wastewater and mosquito matrices. Please contact us for more details.

Research use only. Not intended for diagnostic procedures.

How many samples can you test with one kit?

Each standard assay kit contains enough material for 200 reactions. Sample kits of 25 reactions are available upon request.

Each sample collection kit used in our testing services contains enough materials for one sample to be collected and tested.

What targets are measured?

West Nile virus
Dengue virus, serotypes 1-4
Zika virus
Chikungunya virus
Western Equine Encephalitis virus
Eastern Equine Encephalitis virus
Saint Louis Encephalitis virus

What internal control is used?

Assays are designed to target specific arbovirus targets and contain validated positive controls to confirm amplification of all targets.

How do these assays compare to other commercially available options?

Our proprietary bioinformatics pipeline and technology ensure our designed testing solutions have high specificity and sensitivity.
