Detection kit for Vibrio cholerae CE-IVDD marked in accordance with the European Commission Directive 98/79/EC. Research version available Available in TaqMan format for analysis Vibrio cholerae is a comma-shaped, gram-negative bacterium. It is the cause of cholera in humans, which affects the upper small intestine. Transmission of the disease is mainly through contaminated food or water. Human subjects affected by cholera exhibit severe watery diarrhea and vomiting, caused by the cholera toxin produced by the bacterium. Many cases of cholera are life-threatening, as diarrhea and associated vomiting can lead to rapid dehydration and electrolyte loss. Even with the extensive research on its epidemiology, cholera still affects over 5 million people per year worldwide.
