AstraFormedic offers a portfolio of kits for antibiotic resistance, multiplex Real-Time PCR kits for the rapid detection of resistance genes for AmpC β-lactamases and carbapenemases in Gram-negative bacteria.

These kits allow for the detection of numerous AmpC allelic variants in clinically relevant resistance gene families, CMY02, DHA, ACC, EBC, FOX, and MOX, to differentiate between plasmid-mediated and chromosomal AmpC β-lactamase resistance. They also enable the detection of clinically relevant plasmid-mediated ampC gene families, KPC, NDM, OXA-48, IMP, VIM, DHA, CMY-2, CTX-M-14, and CTX-M-15, and over 340 allelic variants within 6 OXA gene families, OXA-23, OXA-24/40, OXA-48, OXA-51, OXA-58, and OXA-143, as well as in the TEM, SHV, and GES gene families
