Description

General description

Assurance^® GDS is an advanced genetic detection system for food pathogens. GDS Cronobacter Tq II is an automated nucleic acid amplification system for the detection of Cronobacter spp. The proprietary PickPen^® IMS-based sample preparation procedure quickly and effectively captures Cronobacter spp., separating the pathogen from inhibitory background materials ensuring valid PCR reactions for all sample types, including challenging food and environmental samples. Assurance^® GDS PCR technology provides two additional levels of specificity through the use of both highly specific primers and probes to ensure accurate detection of Cronobacter spp.
