HIV and Borrelia PCR Kits CE-marked

Two new kits for the detection and quantification of the HI virus-1 RNA and Borrelia-specific DNA from Qiagen are now IvD-CE-certified. The artus HI Virus-1 RG RT-PCR Kit provides a high sensitivity of 67 IU/ml and reliable quantification of HIV-1 specific RNA over a broad linear range from 120 to 108 IU/ml. The test allows exact quantification of the viral load. The artus Borrelia LC PCR Kit detects and quantifies all human pathogenic Borrelia species from skin biopsies, synovial fluid, CSF and ticks. Qiagens real-time, PCR-based test allows rapid detection of even small numbers of Borrelia bacteria.
