Bioeksen Meningitis Encephalitis Panel

The Bioeksen Meningitis Encephalitis Panel is a non-automated, multiplex in vitro diagnostic device designed for laboratory testing by professionals. It serves as an aid to diagnosis by qualitatively detecting nucleic acids of “Cryptococcus gattii/neoformans, Listeria monocytogenes, Neisseria meningitidis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Streptococcus agalactiae, Escherichia coli K1, Cytomegalovirus, Enterovirus, Human Parechovirus, Varicella Zoster Virus, Herpes simplex virus 1, Herpes simplex virus 2, Human Herpesvirus 6" in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples by one-step reverese transcription and real-time PCR (RT-qPCR). These samples are collected from individuals suspected of meningitis/encephalitis infection, as determined by their healthcare provider.
