Adeno-Q Real-Time PCR Kit

Product Overview

Adenovirus is one of the most underdiagnosed respiratory pathogens in clinical settings - with 50+ variants and symptoms that mirror influenza, RSV, and COVID-19, misdiagnosis is common. Left undetected, it drives unnecessary antibiotic prescriptions, prolongs hospital stays, and fuels nosocomial outbreaks, particularly in immunocompromised patients and paediatric wards.

The Adeno-Q Real-Time PCR Kit from Genes2Me delivers a definitive, lab - grade answer in a single run. It detects all human adenovirus species directly from nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs - with no ambiguity, no repeat runs, and no compromise on accuracy.

Targets:
Adenovirus
Technology:
TaqMan-based Real-Time PCR

Adeno-Q

Genes2Me is a CE Marked molecular diagnostics company trusted by clinical laboratories across global markets. The Adeno-Q Kit meets European conformity standards for in vitro diagnostic devices - validated to international benchmarks for accuracy, reliability, and safety.

How the Assay Works

The Adeno-Q kit utilizes advanced real-time PCR technology with a multiplex design to simultaneously detect adenovirus DNA and the internal control. Fluorescent probes labeled with FAM (target) and HEX (internal control) ensure high specificity and reliability. A positive control template is included to validate assay performance in every run.

Why Multiplex Viral Testing Matters

Adenovirus infections often present with symptoms similar to other respiratory pathogens, making differential diagnosis challenging. Multiplex testing enables simultaneous detection with built-in controls, reducing false negatives and ensuring accurate, timely identification - critical for effective patient management.

Sample Type & Reporting Output

Sample Type:
Nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swab samples
Reporting Output:
Qualitative detection of adenovirus DNA (Detected / Not Detected)

All human adenovirus species

Key Features & Benefits

Multiplex assay with internal control

Simultaneously detects adenovirus DNA and validates the run - reducing repeat testing and cutting per-sample cost.

High specificity with FAM & HEX dual-probe design

Minimises false positives and cross-reactivity, ensuring results you report are results you can stand behind.

Simple workflow with stable storage conditions

Minimal hands-on time and straightforward setup mean faster lab onboarding and lower training overhead.

Compatible with multiple leading PCR platforms

Works with RapiCycler 96, Bio-Rad CFX96, QuantStudio™ 5, and LightCycler® 480 - no new capital expenditure required.

Positive control included in every run

Each run is self-validating, eliminating the need for a separate external QC kit.

12-month shelf life

Reduces emergency reorders, cuts wastage, and simplifies inventory planning for busy diagnostic labs.

Applications

  • Clinical & Hospital Laboratories: Enables rapid differential diagnosis of adenovirus from influenza, RSV, and SARS-CoV-2, supporting faster and more targeted treatment decisions.
  • Immunocompromised Patients: Essential screening tool for transplant recipients, oncology patients, and those on immunosuppressive therapy, where undetected adenovirus infections can rapidly become life-threatening.
  • Outbreak Surveillance: Supports rapid identification and containment of adenovirus clusters in hospitals, care facilities, and community settings.
  • Travel & Occupational Health: Reliable screening in high-exposure environments including international travel clinics, military units, and occupational health programmes.

Analytical Performance

  • 100% analytical sensitivity and specificity
  • Limit of detection: as low as 41 copies/ml
  • No cross-reactivity with Influenza A/B, RSV, SARS-CoV-2, or Mycobacterium tuberculosis
  • Detect co-infections or co-colonizations with distinct species
