PneumoGenius®
PneumoGenius® is a multiplex real-time PCR assay that detects Pneumocystis jirovecii in respiratory tract samples within 2.5 hours. Pneumocystis jirovecii is a common cause of life-threatening pneumonia in immunocompromised patients. The PneumoGenius® multiplex PCR assay is suitable for real-time PCR instruments using melting curve analysis, and has been validated on LightCycler 480 (Roche) and Rotor-Gene Q (Qiagen).

MucorGenius®
MucorGenius® is a multiplex real-time PCR assay that detects Mucormycosis in respiratory tract samples in less than 3 hours. Mucormycosis is a rare invasive fungal infection with exceedingly high mortality and few therapeutic options. The MucorGenius® multiplex PCR assay is suitable for real-time PCR instruments using melting curve analysis, and has been validated on LightCycler 480 II (Roche) and Rotor-Gene Q (Qiagen), CFX96™ (Bio-Rad), Mic qPCR (BMS) and QuantStudio 5 (Thermo Fisher Scientific).
