Overview

Aldatu’s PANDAA technology is a unique adaptive PCR approach that mitigates the inter-clade genomic diversity of Lassa fever virus (LASV), where other PCR approaches cannot, to provide the first pan-lineage real-time PCR assay for the qualitative detection of LASV RNA.

  • The only assay for universal pan-lineage detection of the Lassa virus
  • Fast – delivers accurate results from RNA in 1 hour
  • One of the most sensitive LASV molecular diagnostics available, with a limit of detection 10 copies / reaction.
  • Platform-agnostic – compatible with most sample prep and qPCR platforms.

For research use only (RUO). Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

PANDAA LASV is a pathogen detection assay that is uniquely designed to provide accurate and rapid information relevant to the identification and / or management of Lassa fever, caused by infection by Lassa virus. The PANDAA LASV kit is an in vitro real-time PCR [qPCR] assay for the amplification and detection of Lassa virus RNA.
 
PANDAA LASV assay is comprised of single reaction mix containing reagents to amplify and detect all known lineages of Lassa virus. The Lassa virus target, located in the L segment, is amplified by PANDAA primers and detected by a FAM™-labelled hydrolysis probe. An Internal Control target is amplified by PANDAA primers and reported using a VIC®-labelled hydrolysis probe.
