Universal Pathogen Detection

Universal Pathogen DNA/RNA Extraction Kit

The magnetiQ Universal Pathogen DNA/RNA Extraction Kit isolates pathogenic nucleic acids from any animal sample matrix in a single step, with high purity and sensitivity down to 1 copy/µL.

Universal Pathogen Detection

One kit, every animal sample matrix

From swabs and serum to sputum and stool, the Universal Pathogen kit captures DNA and RNA from complex veterinary samples, with no proteinase K and no carrier RNA.

Purified product in 15 minutes

A one-step magnetic protocol with no centrifugation, no enzymatic digestion.

Sensitive to 1 copy/µL

High-purity, contaminant-free product for confident downstream detection.

Manual or automated

Manual assays and prefilled plates that scale from 1 to 96 samples per run.
