The Applied Biosystems™ TaqPath™ PCR kits have been analytically- and clinically-validated for use in patient care for disease screening and diagnosis, monitoring of therapeutic response and disease progression, and identification of genetic risk factors.

Thermo Fisher Scientific offers a complete qPCR ecosystem, which includes the Applied Biosystems QuantStudio 5 Dx Real-Time PCR System and upcoming QuantStudio 7 Pro Dx Real-Time PCR Systems designed to simplify workflows, a broad portfolio of master mixes and PCR plastics, RNA/DNA for sample preparation and biosafety cabinets, centrifuges, cold storage, pipettes and tips to support the entire end-to-end workflow of any diagnostic lab.

“Over the years, India has made significant progress in addressing infectious diseases such as Hepatitis B and C, HIV, and Tuberculosis. The country has implemented large-scale vaccination and treatment programs, as well as invested in research to better understand the epidemiology of these diseases and develop new diagnostic tools. However, India still faces challenges in controlling the spread of these diseases. At Thermo Fisher Scientific, we are committed to offering new innovations and workflows to advance research and diagnosis of these infections while actioning our mission, to enable our customers to make the world healthier, cleaner and safer”, said Jagjit Singh Anthak, Director, Genetic Sciences Group and Specialty Diagnostics Group, Thermo Fisher Scientific.
