The technology is the first KFDV Real time RT PCR based detection assay for Indian
settings.
The kit is developed indigenously for diagnosis in human, monkey and tick samples.
The Real time RT PCR based assay will be able to diagnose samples in early phase of
disease and that information will be helpful in patient management as well for the
preventive measures in affected areas.
Test is specific and sensitive to detect low copy number of viral RNA.
It is cost effective and economical as compared to other commercially available real time
kits for other viruses.
Test is user friendly and protocol easy to understand. Basic Real time PCR trained users
will be able to perform the test easily.
It has been developed by National Institute of Virology, Pune (an ICMR institute).
