The ResistancePlus® MG kit utilises PlexZyme® and PlexPrime® for specificity and superior multiplexing capability.The assay is compatible with samples extracted using the MagNA Pure 96 System (Roche), EZ1 Advanced XL (Qiagen), QIAsymphony® SP (QIAGEN) and real-time detection on the LightCycler® 480 Instrument II (LC480 II, Roche), cobas z 480 analyser (z 480). en The ResistancePlus® GC kit is a qualitative real-time PCR assay for the detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and gyrA S91 wild type and gyrA S91F mutantDNA markers that are associated with susceptibility or resistance to ciprofloxacin.The ResistancePlus® GC kit is intended to aid in the diagnosis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae and gyrA status andshould be used in conjunction with clinical and other laboratory information.The ResistancePlus® GC kit may be used with the following specimen types: male and female urine, and anal, rectal, cervical, endocervical, vaginal, urethral, pharyngeal and eye swabs, from symptomatic and asymptomatic patients.The ResistancePlus® GC kit is intended to be used in professional settings such as hospitals, or reference or state laboratories. It is not intended for self-testing, home use, or point of care use. en Real-time PCR (qPCR) can be used to amplify and detect specific target nucleic acids from pathogens. Plex PCR®is a qPCR technology utilising PlexZyme® enzymes that detect and report the amplified product through the generation of a fluorescent signal ( Figure 1). Plex Prime® primers for specific amplification of mutant sequences which is coupled with mutant specific PlexZyme® detection ( Figure 2).PlexZyme® enzymes are catalytic DNA complexes composed of two DNA oligos referred to as “Partial Enzymes”. Each Partial Enzyme has a target-specific region, a catalytic core and a universal probe binding region. When the target product is present, the two Partial Enzymes bind adjacently to form the active PlexZyme® which has catalytic activity to cleave a labelled probe. Cleavage separates the fluorophore and quencher dyes, producing a fluorescent signal that can be monitored in real time. PlexZyme® enzymes have additional specificity compared to alternate detection technologies, since two Partial Enzymes are required to bind for detection. PlexZyme® enzymes are also multiple turnover enzymes, and multiple probes can be cleaved during each PCR cycle, resulting in a strong and sensitive signal. PlexZyme® assays are highly sensitive and specific and are ideally suited for the multiplexed detection of pathogens.Plex Prime® primershave three functional regions. The long 5’ region anchors the primer to a particular location, and the short 3’ region selectively targets extension from the mutant base. An Insert sequence lies between the 5’ and 3’ regions and acts as a bridging structure which inserts atarget-independent sequence into the resulting amplicon and increases the selective pressure of the 3’ region. In multiplex, each Plex Prime® primer is designed to target a specific mutant base and will incorporate a unique Insert sequence, thus producing distinct mutant amplicon sequences. Unlike other probe-based detection technologies, the PlexZyme® enzyme can be overlapped with the Plex Prime® primer to target the specific mutant amplicon containing the mutant base and incorporated Insert sequence. The unique combination of Plex Prime® primers coupled to PlexZyme® enzymes allows the specific amplification of mutant sequences, and sensitive and specific detection in multipllex. en
