Monkeypox Virus Real Time PCR Kit MPXV Oropharyngeal Swab Oropharyngeal Swab

INTENDED USE

The Real-Time PCR Kit for Detection of Monkeypox Virus is a qualitative in vitro real-time PCR test for the detection of nucleic acid from monkeypox virus in oropharyngeal swab, nasopharyngeal swab, human pustular or vesicular rash specimens from individuals suspected of monkeypox virus infectious.

Results are for the identification of monkeypox virus DNA. Positive results are indicative of the presence of monkeypox virus DNA; clinical correlation with patient history and other diagnostic information is necessary to determine patient infection status. Positive results do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with other viruses. The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease.

Negative results do not preclude monkeypox virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for patient management decisions. Negative results must be combined with clinical observations, patient history, and epidemiological information.

The Real-Time PCR Kit for Detection of Monkeypox Virus is intended for use by qualified and trained clinical laboratory personnel specifically

instructed and trained in the techniques of real-time PCR and in vitro diagnostic procedures

SUMMARY

Monkeypox(MPX) is an acute zoonotic infectious disease caused by Monkeypox Virus(MPXV). Monkeypox virus usually invades the body through the respiratory mucosa, propagates in the lymphocytes and invades the blood, produces temporary viremia, multiplies in the cells, and then invades the blood from the cells, runs to the skin of the whole body, and causes lesions. The clinical symptoms of monkeypox infection are similar to those of Variola, but are usually milder. Generally, after a 12-day incubation period, fever, headache, muscle pain, and swollen lymph nodes appear. Papules appear 1-3 days after fever, and papules will appear on the face or other parts of the body. As the disease progresses, the pimples crust and fall off. The course of the disease generally lasts 2-4 weeks, and the mortality rate is 1%-10%. Lymphadenopathy is one of the main differences between this disease and smallpox.

In recent years, the diagnostic technology of monkeypox virus has been greatly developed, from the earliest virus isolation and serological methods to the current ELISA and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Nucleic acid testing is the gold standard for diagnosing monkeypox infection.
