AquatiqPCR
Molecular detection kits for waterborne pathogens
The AquatiqPCR© unique line of product is based on patented
chimeric DNA/RNA primer/probes technology and proprietary
computational platform; resulting in highly specific and
supersensitive detection, down to single-cell.
AquatiqPCR© is today's best choice for the detection of E-coli
pathogenic Cryptosporidium and Giardia in water samples.
AquatiqPCR© kits offer faster, highly sensitive, accurate and
pathogen specific results.

AquatiqPCR -E
Advanced molecular diagnostics
Molecular detection of E. coli in water
AquatiqPCR-E 30-004 (24 samples)
A singleplex assay for the detection of E. coli spp. in water
Advantages:
Sensitive (down to single CFU/sample)
Specific (detects only E. coli spp. and Shigella )
Fast - unequivocal results within 3hrs. (Instead of 24-48hrs.)
AquatiqPCR-E: Assay sensitivity
Detection of E. coli in drinking water
using Genaphora’s AquatiqPCR-E kit.
The L.O.D of AquatiqPCR-E is as low as 1-2
CFU of E. coli per tube and meets the
regulatory requirements. Culture
enrichment process ensures the detection
of living E. coli and Shigella.

AquatiqPCR-E was tested against several Coliforms
and other closely related bacteria to E. coli and
was found to be specific only to E. coli and Shigella
(a closely related pathogenic species which can be
separated only by discriminating test).
