Bio-Rad Laboratories developed the ZDC Multiplex RT-PCR Assay (Research Use Only) for the simultaneous detection of Zika (ZIKV), dengue (DENV), and chikungunya (CHIKV) viral RNA. This assay has been wet-lab validated using Bio-Rad’s CFX96™ and Thermo Fisher Scientific’s ABI 7500 Real-Time PCR Detection Systems. The assay is also compatible with most qPCR systems with at least 4-channel multiplex capability.
Convenient one-step assay with all controls
The ZDC Multiplex RT-PCR Assay is a one-step RT-PCR assay for the multiplex detection of Zika, dengue, and chikungunya viral RNA by real-time PCR. The assay includes all the controls needed for reliable results, thus providing researchers with a robust tool to identify ZIKV, DENV, and CHIKV nucleic acids in RNA extracted from a wide range of sample types.
