定量檢測(cè)巨細(xì)胞病毒(CMV)的分子診斷檢測(cè)方法現(xiàn)在歐盟地區(qū)用于診斷用途。

Qiagen公司(Hamburg, Germany)已經(jīng)宣布，該公司的CMV多聚酶鏈反應(yīng)(PCR)檢測(cè)試劑盒已經(jīng)獲得了CE標(biāo)記，現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)可以在歐洲投入使用。CMV屬于皰疹病毒家族。

免疫抑制的患者容易患嚴(yán)重的CMV感染，危及生命。Artus CMV PCR檢測(cè)試劑盒能夠早期檢測(cè)CMV，這是一個(gè)很重要的成功治療的影響因子。該試劑盒能夠快速定量檢測(cè)CMV DNA，可以用于Abi Prism、LightCycler和Rotor-Gene3000檢測(cè)系統(tǒng)。

New Tests for CMV Available in EU
 
Molecular diagnostic tests for the quantitative detection of cytomegalovirus (CMV) are now available for diagnostic use in the European Union.

Qiagen (Hamburg, Germany) has announced that its artus CMV polymerase chain reaction (PCR) kits have received the CE Mark and can now be used in Europe. CMV belongs to the herpes virus family.

Immunocompromised patients often develop severe CMV infections resulting in life-threatening diseases. Artus CMV PCR kits enable early detection of CMV, which is an essential factor for successful treatment. The kits assure rapid and quantitative detection of CMV DNA and are suitable for use with the Abi Prism and LightCycler instruments and Rotor-Gene3000.
