AffiPCR® Hantavirus Real-Time PCR Kit for HPS Detection
What is Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS)?
Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS) is a severe respiratory disease caused by certain hantaviruses. Clinical symptoms may include fever, chills, muscle pain, headache, nausea, and vomiting. In severe cases, the infection can rapidly progress to respiratory distress, shortness of breath, pulmonary edema, and potentially respiratory failure. Early detection of hantavirus RNA is essential for research, epidemiological studies, and outbreak monitoring.
