LetgenPro|Oligonucleotide Primer-Probe Set 100 Rxn (704/ESC.K99)

Escherichia coli K99, also known as F5, is an adhesin associated with enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC), a major cause of neonatal diarrhea in calves and other young livestock. The K99 fimbrial antigen enables bacteria to attach to the intestinal lining, allowing colonization and toxin-mediated disease. Infection can lead to severe watery diarrhea, dehydration, weakness, and potentially mortality in young animals. Rapid and accurate molecular detection of the K99-associated target supports pathogen identification, disease surveillance, and timely veterinary intervention to help protect livestock health and productivity.
