Listeria monocytogenes

Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne bacterial pathogen that can cause listeriosis, a serious infection especially dangerous for pregnant women, newborns, the elderly, and immunocompromised individuals. It can lead to sepsis, meningitis, and pregnancy complications. Rapid and accurate detection is critical for clinical diagnosis and outbreak investigation.
Listeria monocytogenes PCR kits based on real-time PCR technology offer a sensitive and specific method for detecting L. monocytogenes DNA in human samples together with other pathogens. These molecular diagnostics tools deliver accurate and reproducible results in routine and specialized laboratory workflows. Available in CE IVD-marked format for diagnostic workflows and research use only (RUO) version, these multiplex PCR assays support a wide range of applications including central nervous system infection testing, prenatal screening, and foodborne pathogen surveillance from clinical samples.
