DiaSorin Molecular Introduces Primer Pair Reagent for Pneumocystis jirovecii

DiaSorin Molecular has announced the expansion of its menu of molecular reagents with the introduction of a Pneumocystis jirovecii primer pair for use in laboratory-developed molecular tests. This analyte-specific reagent (ASR) can be used for the amplification and detection of the Pneumocystis jirovecii mtLSU gene with a CFR610- and BHQ-2-labeled probe and forward and reverse primers. This is DiaSorin’s first fungal infectious disease target.
