With multiple possible causes to the illness, enteric pathogen researchers should equip themselves with sensitive and specific testing technology.<\/p>\n<p>Molecular pathogen research panels of all sizes are becoming available in the market. With many research labs now equipped with PCR instruments purchased in the recent years, there is an opportunity to repurpose that technology and leverage a molecular approach for gastrointestinal testing. This enables laboratories to differentiate between the most common pathogens that cause infectious gastroenteritis to effectively study outbreaks and determine disease etiology where pathogens are similar. Speed is also key in controlling the spread. Something that culture-based testing does not provide when compared to PCR.<\/p>\n<h2>A molecular solution for gastrointestinal pathogen research<\/h2>\n<p>The TrueMark\u2122 Enteric Pathogen Expanded Panel is a real-time PCR solution for gastrointestinal research that provides high specificity, accuracy, and precision compared to traditional culture and microscopy methods. The expanded panel has 22-26 bacterial, viral, and parasitic targets with a turnaround time of ~5 hours from sample preparation to results. The panel also allows for testing from multiple sample types, including fecal and rectal swabs, and fresh and frozen stool.<\/p>\n<p>The TrueMark Enteric Pathogen Expanded Panel is available in two formats:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>26 targets spotted in duplicate (format 56 including 2 controls) on OpenArray Plates<\/li>\n<li>22 targets spotted in duplicate (format 24 including 2 controls) on Array Cards<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Both product options are now available off-the-shelf as of October 24<sup>th<\/sup>, 2022. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Request more information <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thermofisher.com\/us\/en\/home\/global\/forms\/life-science\/infectious-disease-testing-solutions.html\">here<\/a> about infectious disease research panels.<\/p>\n<p><strong>References<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>*What is infectious gastroenteritis?<\/em> (n.d.).
