Epidemiology

Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) is one of the smallest prokaryotic organisms, lying between bacteria and viruses. It has a cellular structure but no cell wall. MP primarily causes respiratory infections in humans, particularly in children and young adults. The illnesses it triggers include mycoplasma pneumonia, pediatric respiratory tract infections, and atypical pneumonia. Clinical symptoms vary widely, with severe cough, fever, chills, headache, and sore throat being common. Upper respiratory tract infections and bronchial pneumonia are the most frequent manifestations. In some instances, an upper respiratory infection can advance to severe pneumonia, potentially leading to severe respiratory distress and even death.

Work Flow

Sputum Sample

Two extraction reagent options are recommended. First option: Viral DNA/RNA Kit (compatible with an automatic nucleic acid extractor). Add 200 µL of normal saline to the processed precipitate, then proceed with extraction according to the kit's instructions, using an elution volume of 80 µL. Second option: Nucleic Acid Extraction or Purification Reagent (YDP315-R). Perform extraction strictly following its instructions, with an elution volume of 60 µL.

Oropharyngeal Swab

Two extraction reagent options are recommended. First option: Viral DNA/RNA Kit (for use with an automatic nucleic acid extractor). Follow the kit's instructions, using a sample extraction volume of 200 µL and an elution volume of 80 µL. Second option: A silica membrane-based viral RNA extraction kit or Nucleic Acid Extraction or Purification Reagent (YDP315-R). Adhere strictly to the respective product's instructions, with a sample volume of 140 µL and elution volume of 60 µL.

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.
