Klebsiella Pneumoniae (KPN), Acinetobacter Baumannii (Aba) and Pseudomonas Aeruginosa (PA) are common pathogens leading to hospital acquired infections, which may cause serious complications due to their multi-drug resistance, even resistance to last line-antibiotics-carbapenems.
According to the Disease Outbreak News of #WHO, the increased identification of hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) sequence type (ST) 23 (hvKp ST23), which carries resistant genes to the carbapenem antibiotics – carbapenemase genes, was reported in at least 1 country in all 6 WHO Regions. The emergence of these isolates with resistance to last-line antibiotics - carbapenems calls for early and reliable identification to facilitate alternative antimicrobial treatment.

Klebsiella Pneumoniae, Acinetobacter Baumannii and Pseudomonas Aeruginosa and Drug Resistance Genes (KPC, NDM, OXA48 and IMP) Multiplex from Macro & Micro-Test, not only identifies the KPN, Aba and PA, but also detects 4 carbapenemase genes, which in the single test, empowering timely and appropriate clinical management.
- High sensitivity of 1000 CFU/mL;
- Multiplex kit streamlines detection to avoid redundant tests;
- Widely compatible with mainstream PCR systems;
