HUMAN PARECHOVIRUS QUALITATIVE PCR Test
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the HUMAN PARECHOVIRUS QUALITATIVE PCR Test for the detection of human parechovirus (HPeV) in patients. This diagnostic test is essential in identifying the presence of HPeV, a common viral infection that can cause various symptoms.
Test Details
The HUMAN PARECHOVIRUS QUALITATIVE PCR Test is a highly sensitive and specific method that amplifies and detects the viral genetic material in the patient’s sample. This allows for early and accurate diagnosis of HPeV infection. The test is performed using real-time PCR technology.

About HPeV Infection
HPeV is a viral infection that can cause various symptoms in individuals. These symptoms include fever, rash, respiratory symptoms, and gastrointestinal issues. To accurately diagnose HPeV infection, the HUMAN PARECHOVIRUS QUALITATIVE PCR Test is conducted.
How the Test Works
During the test, a sample such as blood, cerebrospinal fluid, or respiratory secretions is collected from the patient. This sample is then processed in our laboratory, where the genetic material of the virus is extracted. The PCR technique is used to amplify specific regions of the viral genome, if present, and detect their presence. The results of the test are reported as positive or negative, indicating the presence or absence of HPeV in the patient’s sample.
Importance of the Test
The HUMAN PARECHOVIRUS QUALITATIVE PCR Test is crucial in helping healthcare providers make appropriate treatment decisions and take necessary precautions to prevent the spread of the virus. However, it’s important to note that this test only detects the presence of the virus and does not provide information about the severity of the infection or the patient’s immune response. Additional tests may be required to assess the clinical significance of the HPeV infection.
If you suspect an HPeV infection or require further information, please consult with your physician or contact DNA Labs UAE for assistance.
