eazyplex® VRE is a ready-to-use, lyophilized in vitro diagnostic kit designed for the qualitative detection of vancomycin resistance genes.
The assay targets the main vancomycin resistance genes (vanA and vanB) in Enterococcus species, enabling rapid identification of resistant strains.
How It Works
-
LAMP technology enables rapid and specific amplification of resistance gene targets at a constant temperature
-
No DNA extraction needed — simplifies the workflow
-
Results available in approximately 25 minutes
-
Real-time detection of amplification signal
-
Internal controls included to verify correct assay performance and help avoid false negatives
Key Benefits
-
Fast turnaround time compared with culture-based screening
-
Simple workflow with minimal hands-on time
-
Direct testing from clinical swabs or cultured isolates
-
Lyophilized reagents ready for immediate use and stable in storage
-
High sensitivity and specificity for vancomycin resistance genes
Intended Use
The test is intended for clinical microbiology and hospital laboratories as an aid in the rapid identification of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) during patient screening or diagnostic workups. Early detection supports:
-
Infection control measures and surveillance in healthcare settings
-
Timely clinical decision-making and antimicrobial stewardship
-
Reduction of VRE transmission risk among patients
