eazyplex® hv-K. pneumoniae

Rapid molecular diagnostic test designed for the detection of hypervirulent strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp)

More detailed product information

eazyplex® hv-K. pneumoniae is a ready-to-use, lyophilized diagnostic kit based on LAMP technology (Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification). The test detects specific genetic markers associated with hypervirulent K. pneumoniae strains.

A key advantage is that no DNA extraction step is required, simplifying the workflow and reducing hands-on time in the laboratory.

How It Works

Utilizes isothermal LAMP amplification for rapid gene detection
Provides results in approximately 20 minutes
Detects hypervirulence-associated genetic markers
Designed for use with cultured bacteria or positive blood cultures

Key Benefits

Rapid time-to-result – supports early therapeutic decisions
No DNA extraction required – streamlined laboratory workflow
Ready-to-use lyophilized reagents – stable and easy to handle
High specificity and reliability for hypervirulent strains

Intended Use

The kit is intended for clinical microbiology laboratories seeking rapid identification of hypervirulent K. pneumoniae strains. Early detection supports:

Infection control and epidemiological surveillance
Risk assessment for invasive infections
Optimized patient management and treatment strategies
