ONE STOOL EXTRACT, FOUR PATHOGEN CLASSES
The Biomiga GI Panel Real-Time PCR Detection Kit (QP2166) is a qualitative multiplex real-time PCR assay for bacterial, diarrheagenic E. coli, parasitic and viral nucleic acids in unpreserved stool collected in Cary-Blair transport medium. Targets run across seven multiplex mixes, each read in four fluorescence channels, with a human RNase P internal control and kit positive and negative controls. Built-in marker logic separates E. coli pathotypes, including STEC, EHEC, EPEC, EAEC, ETEC and EIEC/Shigella.
For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Target list per Biomiga's instructions for use (IFU), March 2026. The mix layout also includes a C. difficile toxin B (tcdB) marker and an E. coli O157 marker.

| Mix | JOE | FAM | ROX | Cy5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Astrovirus | Adenovirus | Rotavirus | Norovirus GI |
| 2 | tcdB | Norovirus GII | aaiC | Sapovirus |
| 3 | Y. enterocolitica | V. parahaemolyticus | Cryptosporidium | C. cayetanensis |
| 4 | Campylobacter | Salmonella | G. lamblia | RNase P (control) |
| 5 | eae | stx2 | aggR | ipaH |
| 6 | stx1 | uidA | V. vulnificus | E. histolytica |
| 7 | O157 (VIC) | STa | STb | LT |
The kit identifies E. coli with the uidA marker, then assigns a pathotype from the virulence genes detected alongside it:
uidA + ipaH
uidA + aggR or aaiC, no stx
uidA + eae, no stx
uidA + eae + stx1 and/or stx2
uidA + stx1 and/or stx2, no eae or aggR/aaiC
uidA + aggR or aaiC + stx1 and/or stx2
uidA + STa, STb or LT
Summarized from the E. coli interpretation table in Biomiga's IFU.
Purify DNA/RNA from stool in Cary-Blair medium with an extraction kit (not included).
15 µL of each GI PCR Mix plus 5 µL of extract or control, for a 20 µL reaction.
50 °C for 5 min, 95 °C for 2 min, then 40 cycles of 95 °C for 5 s and 60 °C for 20 s.
Confirm the controls pass, then call each target by channel and assign E. coli pathotypes from the marker table.
INSTRUMENTS
Biomiga lists the Applied Biosystems 7500, Thermo Fisher QuantStudio 5, 7 and 12K, and Bio-Rad CFX96 and CFX384 as compatible. Any real-time cycler with FAM, JOE (HEX or VIC), ROX and Cy5 channels meets the IFU's requirement.
You supply: DNA/RNA extraction reagents, Cary-Blair collection containers, PCR tubes or plates, RNase-free 1.5 mL tubes, a vortex, a high-speed centrifuge, micropipettes with filter tips, and PPE.
| Component | 100 tests | 1,000 tests |

No. In the United States it is supplied for research use only and is not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Unpreserved stool collected in Cary-Blair transport medium. Biomiga advises processing samples promptly, or holding them at 4 °C for up to 24 hours or at -80 °C for longer storage.
No. Nucleic acid must be extracted before testing. Biomiga's MgPure Universal Pathogen DNA/RNA Purification Kit (MR6532.CX.A96) is one option; ask us for a quote.
Biomiga lists the ABI 7500, QuantStudio 5, 7 and 12K, and Bio-Rad CFX96 and CFX384. Other cyclers need FAM, JOE (HEX/VIC), ROX and Cy5 channels; contact us before ordering if you run a different platform.
Biomiga states an analytical sensitivity of 200 copies/mL.
It ships frozen. Store at -20 ± 5 °C and keep freeze-thaw cycles under five. Biomiga states 12 months of validity, with the expiry date printed on the label.
