PATHfinder – 4-Plex Real-Time PCR kit for rapid identification of Legionella colony isolates (based on ISO12869)
PATHfinder Real-Time PCR kits are primary tools for modern food and water quality and safety testing.

The kits detect in different sample the presence and the identity of microrganisms through their DNA.The kits are developed according to the norms ISO22119, ISO20838, ISO16140 hence they include an internal amplification control, a positive and a negative control. This 4-plex kit is based on ISO12869 (about molecular detection of Legionella) indications and in less than 30 minutes, without any DNA extraction step, allows also for the identification as Legionella spp., L. pneumophila and L. pneumophila serogroup 1 of a colony isolated on a plated growth medium. Genetic ID of Legionella colonies is allowed by the most recent edition of ISO11731 offering many benefits over the classic agglutination methods: cost reduction, processivity and reduced time to results, no need for an expert interpretation of results.
