Human Papillomavirus (HPV) belongs to the Papillomaviridae family of a small-molecule, non-enveloped, circular double-stranded DNA virus, with a genome length of about 8000 base pairs (bp). HPV infects humans through direct or indirect contact with contaminated items or sexual transmission. The virus is not only host-specific, but also tissue-specific, and can only infect human skin and mucosal epithelial cells, causing a variety of papillomas or warts in human skin and proliferative damage to reproductive tract epithelium.
The kit is suitable for the in vitro qualitative typing detection of the 14 types of human papillomaviruses (HPV16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66, 68) nucleic acids in human urine samples, female cervical swab samples, and female vaginal swab samples. It can only provide auxiliary means for the diagnosis and treatment of HPV infection.
