Mycoplasma pneumoniae
Description
The MycPne dtec-qPCR comprises a series of specific targeted reagents designed for Mycoplasma pneumoniae detection by using qPCR. Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a member of the Mycoplasma genus, characterized for the lack of a cell wall around their cell membrane. M. pneumoniae is a type of atypical bacteria that commonly causes mild infections of the respiratory system. The most common type of illness caused by these bacteria, especially in children, is tracheobronchitis, commonly called a chest cold. Symptoms often include being tired and having a sore throat, fever, and cough. Sometimes M. pneumoniae can cause pneumonia, a more serious lung infection, which may require care in a hospital.
