Prevent Viral Outbreaks: Rapid Norovirus and Hepatitis A Detection Kit

Safeguard your consumers and brand reputation against major foodborne viral outbreaks with Hygiena’s foodproof® Norovirus (GI, GII) plus Hepatitis A Virus Detection Kit. This robust "all-in-one" solution allows laboratories to simultaneously detect and differentiate between Norovirus Genogroups I & II and Hepatitis A in a single real-time RT-PCR reaction. By consolidating these targets, you significantly reduce reagent costs and hands-on time compared to running separate assays.

Designed for convenient manual or semi-automated extraction, the kit is compliant with ISO/TS 15216 standards. It includes a bacteriophage MS2 process control to monitor extraction efficiency, ensuring valid results even in difficult samples. The assay is validated for use with a wide variety of matrices, including bottled water and challenging food matrices such as soft fruits, shellfish (oysters/mussels), or minced meat.

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Multiplex Efficiency: Detect three viral targets plus an internal process control in one test.
  • Superior Sensitivity: Detects as few as 1 - 10 virus copies per reaction, minimizing the risk of releasing contaminated products.
  • Open Platform: Compatible with most common real-time PCR cycler
