The BK virus is a member of the polyomavirus family. It has been suggested that this virus may be transmitted through respiratory fluids or urine, since infected individuals periodically excrete virus in the urine. BK viral infections are typically asymptomatic in healthy individuals, however very mild symptoms may appear including mild respiratory infections and fever. Infections with BK virus in immunocompromised or immunosupressed patients are much more severe and may involve renal dysfunction. In fact, in kidney transplant patients the immunosupressive drugs required for the transplant may allow the virus to replicate within the graft, resulting in a disease called BK virus nephropathy (BKVN). The JC virus is a type of human polyomavirus and is very common in the general population, infecting 70 to 90% of humans. Most people acquire JCV in childhood or adolescence. Typically the infection is subclinical and no of consequence in individuals with healthy immune systems. The initial site of infection may be the tonsils or the gastrointestinal tract, and the virus then remains latent in the gastrointestinal tract. JCV can also infect the tubular epithelial cells in the kidneys, where it continues to reproduce, shedding virus particles in the urine. Also, JCV can cross the blood-brain barrier into the central nervous system. JCV is known to cause the usually fatal progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) by destroying oligodendrocytes in the brain in immunodeficient or immunosuppressed individuals. The JC and BK viruses are very similar, with their genomes sharing 75% homology. It is however important to differentiate between the viruses due to the differences in pathology and especially the invariably fatal outcome of PML which is only caused by the JC virus.

More than 70 types of human papillomavirus (HPV) have been identified, and are generally classified as high-risk or low-risk depending on their relationship or lack of relationship with cancer and high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN 2-3). HPV viruses are predominantly sexually transmitted and high-risk HPV types are a major risk factor for development of cervical cancer. HPV 16 has been considered as a high-risk cancer associated HPV type. The low-risk HPV type 6 has been associated with the presence of genital warts. There are many other low-risk HPV types that are not associated with genital warts or cervical cancer. Until now, HPV cannot be cultured in vitro, and immunological tests are inadequate to determine the presence of HPV cervical infection. On the other hand, biopsies can be analyzed by nucleic acid hybridization to directly detect the presence of HPV DNA.

Storage Conditions and Product Stability
All kit components can be stored for 2 years after the date of production without showing any reduction in performance.
All kit components should be stored at -20°C upon arrival. Repeated thawing and freezing (> 2 x) of the Master Mix and Positive Control should be avoided, as this may affect the performance of the assay. If the reagents are to be used only intermittently, they should be frozen in aliquots.
