RCP-Q Comprehensive Real Time PCR Kit

Multiplex Detection of Respiratory Pathogens by Real-Time PCR

The RCP-Q Comprehensive Real Time PCR Kit is a CE-IVD molecular diagnostic assay designed for the qualitative detection of multiple respiratory pathogens from a single clinical sample.

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

Product Overview


The RCP-Q Comprehensive Real Time PCR Kit is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) assay based on real-time PCR technology for broad-spectrum detection of respiratory pathogens from nasopharyngeal or oropharyngeal swab samples.

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 test is designed as a 4-tube multiplex assay, enabling simultaneous detection of 23 respiratory pathogens along with an internal control, ensuring both high diagnostic coverage and assay reliability.
