hMPXV is putative candidate for wastewater-based-epidemiology (WBE) exhibiting a rapid transmissibility, urogenital symptoms with virions presumably shed in bath water.
Municipal sewersheds in the U.S. have detected hMPXV, and several states have declared a state of emergency in response to local outbreaks.

FAQs
What instruments can I use with these kits?
Our kits are validated using the BIORAD QX200™ and QIAcuity® instruments for digital PCR and the Bio-Rad CFX96™ and QuantStudio5 instruments for RT-qPCR. While some RT-qPCR instruments may be interchangeable, we recommend using the QIAcuity specific assays with the QIAcuity instrument for best results.
Can these kits be used to detect hMPXV in wastewater?
As GT Molecular specializes in wastewater surveillance, all digital PCR kits are validated for use in wastewater samples. As testing wastewater samples can be complicated by a complex matrix with inhibitors, we have recommendations on how to maximize your success in our GT-Molecular Guide to Wastewater Surveillance available upon request.
Can these kits be used to detect hMPXV in clinical samples?
Our PCR kits are currently for Research Use Only (RUO).
How soon after placing an order can I expect delivery of the kit?
For deliveries within the US, the kits are shipped FedEx Priority overnight on ice. Most customers receive their kits within 2 business days of placing an order.
