BIO-PROBE® Virus Detection Assays

BIO-PROBE® Probes for sensitive detection of infectious viral DNA from fresh or FFPE tissue sections

BIO-PROBE® probes are ready-to-use biotinylated probes for ISH detection against infectious diseases viral targets including Adenovirus, Blur-8, and CMV among others.

Virus detection assays for use in a variety of hybridization techniques, including in situ hybridization at low concentrations (50-100 ng/mL). Biotinylated probes have been shown to hybridize to homologous DNA at the same rate and to the same extent as non-biotinylated probes.
