Epidemiology

Carbapenems represent an atypical class of β-lactam antibiotics, known for their exceptionally broad spectrum and potent antibacterial effects. Their stability against β-lactamases and low toxicity have established them as crucial agents for managing severe bacterial infections. These antibiotics exhibit high resistance to plasmid-mediated extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs), chromosomal enzymes, and plasmid-mediated cephalosporinases (AmpC enzymes).

Work Flow

Option 1.

Recommended extraction reagent: General DNA/RNA Kit (compatible with an Automatic Nucleic Acid Extractor). Add 200 μL of normal saline to the bacterial pellet. Follow the extraction instructions for subsequent steps, with a recommended elution volume of 100 μL.

Option 2.

Recommended extraction reagent: Nucleic Acid Extraction or Purification Reagent (YDP302). Begin extraction strictly according to step 2 of the instructions for use: add 200 μL of buffer GA to the bacterial pellet, and shake until the pellet is completely suspended. Use RNase/DNase-free water for elution, with a recommended elution volume of 100 μL.

Option 3.

Recommended extraction reagent: Sample Release Reagent. For sputum samples, wash the previously treated bacterial pellet by adding 1 mL of normal saline, centrifuge at 13000 rpm for 5 minutes, and discard the supernatant (leaving 10–20 µL of supernatant). For pure colonies and rectal swabs, add 50 μL of sample release reagent directly to the treated bacterial pellet, and then proceed with extraction according to the instructions for use.

FAQ

What should be confirmed before quotation?

Sample context, collection method, and extraction workflow should be confirmed before final kit selection.

Which documents can be requested?

Datasheet, IFU, SDS, COA / conformance, origin, insurance, and export documents can be checked where available.

Can the format be adjusted for different workflows?

Liquid or lyophilized format options should be confirmed together with instrument compatibility and shipment requirements.
