Drug Resistance

 
Drug resistance is increasingly problem in therapeutic field. DiaCarta has collaborated with Signal Diagnostics to embark on this market and developed drug sensitivity/resistance screening tests.
The test is based on the High Resolution Melting (HRM) Curve using amplicon melt analysis, melting probes and 5’ nuclease probes.
New Product – TB-Rx®
To speed up the treatment regimen for Tubercuolosis we have developed a new Drug Sensitivity Testing kits. This easy to use, Tb-Rx procedure allows you to characterize the drug resistance profile of any Tb infection in less than 1 day.

Tb-Rx: Results easy-to-read
Currently, we have the following drug susceptibility screen tests.

Tuberculosis (Rifampicin, Isoniazid, Ethambutol, Pyrazinamide, Streptomycin)
Malaria (Chloroquine)
MRSA (Vancomycin & beta-lactams)
Human beta-tubulin (Taxanes)
Yeast (azoles)
