生物通报道：来自纽约8月1日的消息，欧盟组织（The European Union）将CE Mark奖颁发给了Qiagen的用于检测疱疹细胞巨化病毒（herpes cytomegalovirus，CMV）的分子诊断试剂盒。Qiagen的Artus CMV PCR kit是一种用于CMV早期检测的试剂盒，这个试剂盒可以用在ABI的PRISM 7000, 7700, 和7900HT SDS systems, 以及Roche的 LightCycler instruments, 和 Corbett Rotor的Gene 3000仪器上。
The European Union awarded the CE Mark to Qiagen's molecular diagnostic kit for detecting the herpes cytomegalovirus, the company said today.
Qiagen developed the Artus CMV PCR kit for early detection of the virus. The kit is designed to be used on Applied Biosystems' PRISM 7000, 7700, and 7900HT SDS systems, various Roche LightCycler instruments, and the Corbett Rotor-Gene 3000.
For example, the test can detect in parallel four herpes viruses -- CMV, EBV, VZV, and HSV-1/2 -- on the LightCycler in a single run, Qiagen said.
