FilmArray RP2<i>plus<\/i> also includes 2 additional pathogens: <i>Bordetella parapertussis<\/i>, one of the causative agents of pertussis or whooping cough, a highly infectious bacterial disease, and Middle East Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV). According to the WHO, the recent MERS-CoV outbreak in the Republic of Korea demonstrated a great potential for widespread transmission and severe disruption both to the health system and to society. The MERS-CoV case fatality rate is approximately 36%. <i>Bordetella parapertussis<\/i> infections represent a significant cause of whooping cough which is oft en missed because of a clinical presentation largely indistinguishable from other viral infections and of lack of reliable diagnostic tests. The FilmArray RP2<i>plus<\/i> is available for use on the FilmArray 2.0 and FilmArray Torch systems and will be commercially available in the countries that recognize CE marking by mid-June 2017.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\n<strong>Supplier:<\/strong> Biom\u00e9rieux<br \/>\n<strong>Website:<\/strong> <a href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"avia-button avia-color-theme-color\" href=\"mailto:media@biomerieux.com\">Mail the supplier<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The newly CE marked FilmArray Respiratory Panel 2 plus (RP2plus) tests for 22 pathogens (18 viruses and 4 bacteria) responsible for respiratory tract infections.
