GT-Digital hMPXV Wastewater Surveillance Assay Kit for the Qiacuity® Digital PCR System

(Cat# 100295) The GT-Digital hMPXV Wastewater Surveillance Assay for the QIAcuity® Digital PCR System comprises a molecular reagent kit containing all primers, probes, and controls for wastewater surveillance of hMPXV, in compliance with the CDC Wastewater Surveillance Testing Method guidance for reporting to the National Wastewater Surveillance System (NWSS). Assay solutions and appropriate controls are provided for the quantification of 1) hMPXV, 2) ORF poxvirus, a matrix recovery control (also called a process control) biologically similar to hMPXV; and 3) crAssphage, a fecal indicator used to estimate the human fecal content in a sample. Through use of this kit, in conjunction with the QIAGEN QIAcuity® instrument, users can monitor hMPXV levels and normalize for changes in viral recovery caused by the variable and complex nature of wastewater, as well as normalize for human waste input, which can change over time due to dilution and variations in human behavior (travel, tourism, etc.). Contains enough material for 200 samples.
