Zika virus
Zika Virus is a mosquito-borne RNA virus primarily transmitted by Aedes species. While often asymptomatic or mild, Zika infection during pregnancy can lead to serious birth defects such as microcephaly, and has been associated with neurological complications like Guillain-Barré syndrome. Accurate and early detection of this viral pathogen is crucial for clinical management and outbreak response.
Zika virus PCR kits based on real-time PCR technology provide a sensitive and specific method for detecting viral RNA in human samples. 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) version, these PCR assays support are suitable for clinical workflows, applications such as prenatal infection screening from clinical samples, travel-related disease diagnostics, and arboviral surveillance.
