Introduction
Human Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a DNA virus from the Herpesviridae family, commonly asymptomatic in the general population but poses significant risks to immunocompromised individuals and is a leading cause of congenital infections.

Product Overview
The STAT-NAT® CMV kit is a lyophilized Real-Time PCR mix designed for the detection and quantification of CMV DNA. It is noted for its high sensitivity and specificity, ease of use, and room temperature storage capabilities.

Key Benefits

• Reliable measurement of CMV DNA load.
• Ready-to-use kit with internal controls and calibrators.
• Useful for monitoring infection levels post-organ transplantation.

Technical Specifications

• Kit Size: 48 tests.
• Validated on platforms: CFX96 (Bio-Rad) and QS5 (ABI).
• Patent No: W02010133628 A1.

Performance and Sustainability

• Improves test sensitivity even with low DNA concentrations.
• Compatible with various molecular biology techniques.
• Environmentally sustainable with no need for temperature-controlled shipping.
• Long-term storage at room temperature due to freeze-drying.

Ease of Use
