This kit uses Taqman fluorescent probes to amplify and detect the Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) gene, and can be applied to the Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) nucleic acid detection in brain tissue, cerebrospinal fluid, and blood samples.
Japanese encephalitis is a viral brain infection that's spread through mosquito bites. It's most common in rural areas in southeast Asia, the Pacific islands and the Far East, but is very rare in travellers. The virus is found in pigs and birds, and is passed to mosquitoes when they bite infected animals.
