HPV 6/16 Detection Kits More than 70 types of human papillomavirus (HPV) have been identified, and are generally classified as high-risk or low-risk depending on their relationship or lack of relationship with cancer and high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN 2-3). HPV viruses are predominantly sexually transmitted and high-risk HPV types are a major risk factor for development of cervical cancer. HPV 16 has been considered as a high-risk cancer associated HPV type. The low-risk HPV type 6 has been associated with the presence of genital warts. There are many other low-risk HPV types that are not associated with genital warts or cervical cancer. Until now, HPV cannot be cultured in vitro, and immunological tests are inadequate to determine the presence of HPV cervical infection. On the other hand, biopsies can be analyzed by nucleic acid hybridization to directly detect the presence of HPV DNA. There is 1 kit available for the detection of HPV (High Risk): ＊Specific Primer/Probe mix and Positive Control for the pathogen/virus/viroid of interest ＊Nuclease-free water ＊Can be used together with Norgen’s PCR/RT-PCR Master Mix (#28007/#28113)or customer supplied master mix
