Hemorrhagic septicemia is a disease of water buffalo and cattle in tropical regions caused by specific serotypes of Pasteurella multocida. Asymptomatic, pneumonic, and disseminated (endotoxemic) forms occur, often with peracute distress and high mortality. This amplification kit detects Hemorrhagic septicemia via Real Time PCR. This allows absolute quantification or a qualitative assay.
Real Time PCR is based on fluorogenic dyes. Ct valuesbetween 12 - 36 should be taken as positive. Values between 36 - 40 Ct should be taken as marginal positive. Ct values above 40 must be considered as negative
