CentriDx Lower Respiratory Pathogen Panel I

CentriDx Lower Respiratory Pathogen Panel I

The CentriDx Lower Respiratory Pathogen Panel I is used for the qualitative detection of nucleic acids from 17 respiratory pathogens in human nasopharyngeal swabs, oropharyngeal swabs, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), or sputum samples. This panel supports the molecular detection of common pathogens associated with lower respiratory tract infections, helping clinical laboratories improve testing efficiency and support differential diagnosis in patients with suspected respiratory infections.

Application Field

The panel supports differential detection of bacterial and atypical respiratory infections, including pathogens commonly associated with pneumonia, bronchitis, and other lower respiratory tract diseases. It helps clinical laboratories improve testing efficiency, reduce the need for multiple separate assays, and provide timely molecular evidence for clinical assessment and patient management.
