PathoProof™ Mastitis Major-3 Kits (Thermo Scientific™)

Accurately and rapidly identify three of the main contagious mastitis-causing organisms using Thermo Scientific™ PathoProof™ Mastitis Major-3 Kits. Obtain results within four hours and identify the particular pathogen causing the infection by testing either fresh or preserved milk samples. Make faster decisions on treatment and reduce the time that an infective agent has to spread in a herd.

Key Features

Identify three of the main contagious mastitis-causing organisms within four hours using PathoProof Major-3 Kits for multiplex PCR. All targeted species are detected simultaneously, overcoming the common problem of mixed growth results in bacterial culturing.

Features include:
• Enables faster decisions on treatment
• Reduces time for infective agents to spread to healthy herd mates
• Reduces broad spectrum antibiotic treatment
• Shortens inflammation time due to rapid treatment
• Enables affected cows to be removed from the herd to ensure optimal milk quality

Assays are based on real-time PCR, an accurate and sensitive technology for identification of the target DNA in the sample. Tests can be used for analyzing fresh and preserved quarter milk samples, milk recording samples and bulk tank milk samples.

Achieve high sensitivity,even for samples that show 'no growth in culture. Accurate detection of viable, dead and growth-inhibited microorganisms reduces “no-growth” results.

PathoProof Major-3 Kit identifies:
1. Mycoplasma bovis
2. Staphylococcus aureus
3. Streptococcus agalactiae

Automated Sample Preparation
Significantly reduce the hands-on time needed when processing larger numbers of samples with the semi-automated Thermo Scientific™ KingFisher™ instrument for magnetic bead-based DNA purification and extraction, along with PathoProof Major-3 KingFisher Kits and qPCR reagents.
