Fusobacterium nucleatum

Description

The FusNuc qPCR comprises a series of species-specific targeted reagents designed for detection of Fusobacterium nucleatum by using qPCR. Fusobacterium nucleatum, an opportunistic pathogen, is thought to promote dental plaque formation by serving as a bridge bacterium between early- and late-colonizing species of the oral cavity. It is one of the most common oral species isolated from extra-oral infections, including blood, brain, chest, lung, liver, joint, abdominal, obstetrical and gynecological infections and abscesses.
