Virus denial test reagent "VirFinder"

Starting from November 2023, the "Aseptic Test Reagents for Bacteria preversion" and "Aseptic Test Reagents for Fungi preversion," which have been under trial sales, will be renamed to "Bacterial Gene Detection Kit BactFinder" and "Fungal Gene Detection Kit FungiFinder." They will be launched as part of the Finder series of safety test reagents, following Myco Finder and VirFinder. These kits offer high sensitivity with a detection limit of 100 CFU/sample, rapid results within 4 hours after sample submission, extensive coverage of pharmacopoeia-listed bacteria, environmental bacteria, and human-derived bacteria, and high specificity with no cross-reactivity with the human genome. Additionally, they are unique reagents that feature two protocols: a "rapid testing system" that allows for determination on the day of testing, and a "high-sensitivity system" that enables detection below 10 CFU/sample.

We have launched the "User's Voice" page on our service site. We will be introducing feedback from users who are actually using our products and services. For our first installment, Ms. Yoshiko Fukaya from the Quality Control Department of Japan Tissue Engineering Co., Ltd. has shared her thoughts on the Myco Finder, a reagent for mycoplasma detection. In the future, we will also feature feedback from users of other products and services.

Nihon Suiryō Seiyaku Co., Ltd. has recently launched the high-sensitivity and rapid virus negation test reagent "VirFinder," which corresponds to the viruses listed in the "Act on Securing Safety in Regenerative Medicine and Other Related Matters." VirFinder has the following features: ■ Capable of detecting 8 types of viruses specified in the "Act on Securing Safety in Regenerative Medicine and Other Related Matters" ■ Corresponds to multiple genotypes of each virus ■ Minimum detection sensitivity is below 100 IU/reaction (below 100 copies/reaction for HTLV and WNV) ■ No cross-reactivity with viruses frequently detected in humans or latent infection viruses ■ Enables rapid detection from nucleic acid extraction to virus detection in about 3 hours For more details about the product, please check the related links or feel free to contact us.
