VERSANT HCV RNA 1.0 Assay (kPCR)
Highly Sensitive Viral Load Assay for the VERSANT kPCR Molecular System
Performance to Meet Your Needs
The VERSANT® HCV RNA 1.0 Assay (kPCR)* is a real-time kinetic polymerase chain reaction (kPCR) assay for quantitative detection of human hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA in plasma or serum of HCV-infected individuals. The assay is intended to be used in conjunction with clinical presentation and other laboratory markers of disease status to aid in the management of HCV-infected individuals undergoing antiviral therapy.
Optimal Standardization
- Referenced to the WHO 3rd Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) RNA International Standard (60/100) for IU/mL
- Conversion factor: 1 IU/mL = 4.3 copies/mL
- Lot-to-lot reproducibility ensured with Gold Standard Master Calibrators (secondary standards to WHO standard)
Dynamic Range
- 15-100,000,000 IU/mL (64.5 – 430,000,000 copies/mL)
- LOD = 15 IU/mL (64.5 copies/mL)
Total Precision (including lot-to-lot variation)
- 2 log IU/mL – 23.8 to 30.4% (0.11 - 0.13 log SD)
- 3-4 log IU/mL – 22.8 to 23.6% (0.10 log SD)
- 5-8 log IU/mL – 26.5 to 35.6% (0.11 - 0.15 log SD)
