This kit is the PCR component of the FAST MicroSEQ™ Fungal Identification System, with enough reagents for 50 PCR amplifications of fungal DNA unknowns. The sequencing component of the kit is required for species identification. Together, the two kits provide an easy-to-use DNA sequence-based method to identify most fungi.
Specific and Easy to Use
Based on phylogenetic analysis of the D2 region of large-subunit ribosomal RNA gene sequences, this easy-to-use kit enables you to identify even the most difficult fungi, yeast, and oomycete plant pathogens. To ensure accurate and specific results, the kit's software compares your samples to a database of D2 sequences from over 1000 validated type species.
