Human sample used / Claims of the kit<br />
<strong>Mycoplasma</strong>/<strong>Chlamydophila</strong> <strong>pneumoniae</strong> Real Time PCR kit is dedicated at the detection of<br />
the <strong>Mycoplasma</strong> <strong>pneumoniae</strong> and <strong>Chlamydophila</strong> <strong>pneumoniae</strong> in bronchoalveolar lavage,<br />
sputum and nasopharyngeal swabs/washes samples.<br />
The kit is used on samples from potentially infected patients by <strong>Mycoplasma</strong> <strong>pneumoniae</strong><br />
and/or <strong>Chlamydophila</strong> <strong>pneumoniae</strong>.<br />
Human samples’ Collection, Storage and Transport<br />
I. Samples’ Collection<br />
Human respiratory samples such as bronchoalveolar lavage, sputum and nasopharyngeal<br />
swabs/washes should be collected.<br />
II. Samples’ Storage<br />
Human sample must be stored at 4°C for up to 24 hours or frozen at -20°C or -80°C for longer<br />
periods of time.<br />
Human samples should be stored in DNase/RNAse free polypropylene tubes. The sensitivity<br />
of the PCR could be reduced if you keep freezing and thawing human samples repeatedly.<br />
Avoid freeze / thaw cycles, which will affect the sensitivity of the assay.<br />
III. Samples’ transport<br />
Human samples must be transported in adapted containers. The samples must be transported<br />
following the local and national regulations for the transport of pathogen material.<br />
Human samples should be transported at -20°C.<br />
