PaxView® HPV16/18/Others MPCR-ULFA Kit

PaxView® HPV16/18/Others MPCR-ULFA Kit

 

Overview

Currently there are over 100 known Human Papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes associated with a number of diseases including many types of cancers, particularly cervical cancer. HPV types are often referred to as high-risk and low-risk, based on whether they put a person at risk for cancer. Two HPV types (16 and 18) cause 70% of cervical cancers and precancerous cervical lesions. Therefore, a sensitive and specific detection of HPV in cervical samples is a useful tool for the early diagnosis of epithelial neoplasia and anogenital lesions.

PaxView® HPV16/18/Others MPCR-ULFA Kit is designed for the simultaneous detection of two high-risk types (16, 18) and common positive of HPV using multiplex polymerase chain reaction (MPCR) and the ensuing, proprietary universal lateral flow assay (ULFA) which is based on DNA-DNA hybridization on nitrocellulose membranes.
