Lactobacillus species
Lactobacillus species are key components of the normal vaginal microbiota and play a vital role in maintaining a healthy urogenital environment. A decrease in Lactobacillus dominance is often associated with bacterial vaginosis, increased risk of sexually transmitted infections, and reproductive health complications. Monitoring their presence is important in microbiome and clinical research.
Lactobacillus species PCR kits based on real-time PCR technology provide a sensitive and specific method for detecting Lactobacillus spp. DNA in human samples together with other STI pathogens. These molecular diagnostics tools offer accurate and reproducible results in routine and specialized laboratory workflows. Available in CE IVD-marked format for diagnostic use and as research use only (RUO) versions, these multiplex PCR assays support laboratory clinical workflows, Lactobacillus spp. identification and diagnostics from clinical samples, applications such as sexually transmitted infections (STI) research, including microbiome profiling, vaginal health research, and microbial community analysis.
