GCP-Q Comprehensive RT-PCR Kit for Gastrointestinal

Multiplex Detection of Gastrointestinal Pathogens by Real-Time PCR

The GCP-Q Comprehensive Real Time PCR Kit is a CE-IVD molecular diagnostic assay designed for the qualitative detection of gastrointestinal infection-causing pathogens in clinical samples.

This multiplex assay enables simultaneous identification of bacterial, viral, and parasitic pathogens, supporting rapid diagnosis, targeted treatment decisions, and effective infection control through a single real-time PCR workflow.

Product Overview


The GCP-Q Comprehensive Real Time PCR Kit is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) assay based on advanced real-time PCR technology for broad-spectrum detection of gastrointestinal pathogens.

The assay integrates automated nucleic acid extraction, multiplex real-time PCR amplification and Fluorescent probe-based detection within a fully automated workflow on compatible systems.

The kit is designed as a 4-tube multiplex assay, enabling simultaneous detection of 16 major gastrointestinal pathogens along with an internal control, ensuring high diagnostic coverage and assay reliability.

Why Comprehensive GI Panel Testing Matters


Gastrointestinal infections (gastroenteritis) are caused by a wide range of pathogens and commonly present with:

Accurate identification is critical because:

Multiplex real-time PCR enables fast, sensitive, and simultaneous detection of multiple GI pathogens, improving diagnostic efficiency and clinical decision-making.
