ZeptoMetrix has introduced the innovative NATtrol Influenza A H5N1 Quantitative Stock to the market, a product that promises to enhance quality standards in the detection of the H5N1 avian influenza virus. This new quantitative control material integrates encapsulated RNA using phage-like particle (PLP) technology, providing a more reliable solution for validating workflows in diagnostic laboratories.
The increasing emergence of H5N1 outbreaks worldwide has intensified the demand for robust quality control materials. Unlike traditional products that use free RNA, ZeptoMetrix’s control requires RNA extraction, thus allowing for more precise validation of extraction, amplification, and detection processes. This advancement addresses a fundamental need in the field of molecular biology, where reliability in diagnostics is crucial for public health.
Dr. Karuna Sharma, Vice President and Chief Scientific Officer of the Antylia Diagnostics division, emphasized the importance of this innovation by stating that “the current H5N1 pandemic has highlighted the urgency of having reliable diagnostic tools.” Encapsulated RNA provides laboratories with the necessary certainty at every stage of analysis, a critical aspect not only for H5N1 but also for other emerging RNA viruses.
The NATtrol Influenza A H5N1 Quantitative Stock, inactivated using NATtrol technology to enhance its stability, is available in a 1 mL ready-to-use format and contains a precise quantification of 1,000,000 copies per mL by segment, verified through digital PCR (dPCR). This specificity facilitates its integration into laboratory workflows, contributing to the efficiency and accuracy of diagnostics.
ZeptoMetrix, part of Antylia Scientific, has established itself as a leader in providing innovative and high-quality solutions for the diagnosis of infectious diseases. Its expertise in molecular diagnostics and the supply of external quality controls has set a reliability standard in the industry, positioning it as the preferred choice in quality control materials.
