The Verigene® Enteric Pathogens Nucleic Acid Test (EP) is a multiplexed, qualitative test for simultaneous detection and identification of common pathogenic enteric bacteria, viruses, and genetic virulence markers from liquid or soft stool preserved in Cary-Blair medium, collected from individuals with signs and symptoms of gastrointestinal infection.


Product Overview

The Verigene® Enteric Pathogens Nucleic Acid Test (EP) is a multiplexed, qualitative test for simultaneous detection and identification of common pathogenic enteric bacteria, viruses, and genetic virulence markers from liquid or soft stool preserved in Cary
Enteric Pathogens (EP) Amplification Tray - 20-011-023


Device Description

A collection of reagents and other associated materials intended to be used for the qualitative and/or quantitative detection of nucleic acid from multiple types of microorganisms associated with gastrointestinal disease, in a clinical specimen, using a microarray method. Microorganisms detected may include bacteria, viruses, fungi and/or parasites such as, but are not limited to Salmonella, Shigella, Campylobacter, Escherichia coli (E. coli), Norovirus, Rotavirus, Clostridium difficile, Giardia, Bacillus and/or Vibrio species.

    Device Name: Gastrointestinal Pathogen Panel Multiplex Nucleic Acid-Based Assay System

    Device Class: 2

    Physical State: Gastrointestinal pathogen panel multiplex nucleic acid-based assay systems are devices that consist of reagents and instruments for the simultaneous detection and identification of multiple gastrointestinal microbial nucleic acids extracted from human stool specimens.

    Definition: A gastrointestinal pathogen panel multiplex nucleic acid assay is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic device intended to simultaneously detect and identify multiple gastrointestinal microbial nucleic acids extracted from human stool specimens. The detection and identification of a specific gastrointestinal microbial nucleic acid from individuals exhibiting signs and/or symptoms of gastrointestinal infection aids in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal infection when used in conjunction with clinical evaluation and other laboratory findings.
