HGA (Anaplasma phagocytophilum) PCR Whole Blood (775)

The HGA (Human Granulocytic Anaplasmosis) PCR test detects Anaplasma phagocytophilum rDNA fragments in the patient specimens. The A. phagocytophilum rDNA fragments are hybrid selected by probes, followed by PCR amplification of the selected fragments using Anaplasma specific primers. A. phagocytophilum specific PCR products are then detected with probes in a dot-blot assay.
