Norgen Bacillus cereus TaqMan PCR Kit - 24 Reactions TM36900

Bacillus cereus Detection Kits Bacillus cereus is a rod-shaped, gram-positive bacterium. Some strains of B. cereus cause foodpoisoning and other diseases such as keratitis. B. cereus grows at a wide range of temperature, from 4°C to 37°C. In fact, many foodborne illnesses caused by B. cereus are a consequence of improperly cooked or improperly stored food, including dairy products and meats. The majority of food poisoning by B. cereus could be divided into two types of symptoms – the emetic type and the diarrheal type, both of which are caused by the enterotoxin produced by the bacteria. There are 2 kits available for the detection of Bacillus cereus: ＊Ready to use format, including Master Mix for the target and PCR control to monitor for PCR inhibition and validate the quality ＊Specific Primer and Probe mix for the pathogen/virus/viroid of interest ＊Primer and Probe mix ＊Positive and negative control to confirm the integrity of the kit reagents
