Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR)

On-Site Detection of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Genes in Under 2 Hours

Antimicrobial resistance is a global crisis and delays in detecting resistance patterns cost lives. The MDR-Q Real time PCR Kit enables real-time, point-of-care molecular screening of critical AMR genes directly from clinical samples. Designed for frontline use, it empowers hospitals, ICUs and surveillance teams to rapidly determine resistance signatures and guide targeted therapy even before culture results are available.

Overview

The AMR-Q POCT Kit is an advanced, lyophilized multiplex PCR-based diagnostic kit for rapid qualitative detection of 16 key antimicrobial resistance genes. The assay supports immediate clinical decision-making, helps antimicrobial stewardship programs, and enables healthcare systems to monitor and control drug-resistant infections in real time even in low-resource settings.

Genes / Resistance Markers Detected
Carbapenem resistance genes: blaNDM, blaKPC, blaOXA-48, others
Vancomycin resistance: vanA, vanB
Methicillin resistance: mecA, mecC
Colistin resistance: mcr-1
Extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL): blaCTX-M, blaTEM, blaSHV
AmpC β-lactamase: ampC
Sulfonamide resistance: sul1, sul2
Plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR): qnr genes
Internal Control (RNaseP): validates assay performance for each run
