Clostridium Perfringens Alpha toxin

The OneqPCR-realtime™ Clostridium perfringens Alpha Toxin Kit constitutes a ready-to-use system for the detection of the Clostridium perfringens alpha toxin gene (cpa) by real-time PCR. Clostridium perfringens is an important foodborne pathogen capable of causing food poisoning and other gastrointestinal diseases, with the alpha toxin being a major virulence factor involved in tissue damage and disease development. The kit contains reagents and enzymes for the specific amplification of the C. perfringens alpha toxin gene target, together with an Internal Control amplification system to identify possible PCR inhibition. The kit also includes a Positive Control PCR mix to ensure reliable assay performance.
