RIDA®PrepX Stool Kit
Skip extraction with RIDA®PrepX Stool Kit
Expedite testing of your gastrointestinal targets and skip the need for lengthy extraction protocols. Ideal for improving daily throughput, RIDA®PrepX Stool Kit integrates seamlessly into your PCR workflow to simplify diagnostic testing.
Our streamlined workflow eliminates the need for DNA/RNA purification prior to PCR, delivering results with a rapid 20-minute protocol and minimal manual handling. Suitable for bacterial, viral, and protozoan parasite targets, it combines simple specimen processing with
efficient capture of PCR inhibitors. Automated sampling directly from RIDA®PrepX tubes, guided by MT-PCR Assay Setup software, further enhances speed and reliability.
RIDA®Plex IVD panels are intended for in vitro diagnostics use by authorised clinical testing laboratories in Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, and the European Economic Area, and are included on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), the MHRA database (REF: 10541) and compliant with the European IVD Directive 98/79/EC. In the USA: For Research Use Only (RUO). For Research Use Only (RUO), not for use In diagnostic procedures. RIDA®Plex RUO panels are for Research Use Only in any jurisdiction.
