Pasteurella multocida detection test kit by using qPCR. Pasteurella multocida cause a range of diseases in mammals and birds, including fowl cholera in poultry, atrophic rhinitis in pigs, and bovine hemorrhagic septicemia in cattle and buffalo. It can also cause a zoonotic infection in humans, which typically is a result of bites or scratches from domestic pets.
Respiratory bacterial pathogens of small ruminants Mannheimia haemolytica, Pasteurella multocida, Bibersteinia trehalosi and Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae detection test kit by using qPCR. Sheeps and goats are highly susceptible to respiratory diseases. Mannheimia haemolytica, Pasteurella multocida, Bibersteinia trehalosi and Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae are important bacterial pathogens associated with pneumonia in small ruminants. M. haemolytica and P. multocida can be cultured from the upper respiratory tract of healthy sheep and goats.
Respiratory pig diseases Haemophilus parasuis, Mycoplasma hyorhinis and Mycoplasma hyosynoviae detection test kit by using qPCR. Haemophilus parasuis, Mycoplasma hyorhinis and Mycoplasma hyosynoviae are respiratory diseases of pigs capable of persisting in a large number of animals for indefinite periods. They may be of little importance in weanling pig operations but become of major importance in high-density herds.
Detection test kit of Riemerella anatipestifer by using qPCR. Riemerella anatipestifer causes septicemia and death in young ducks and geese throughout the world. There are 21 known serotypes and infection is spread horizontally between birds. Infection may be referred to as Duck Septicemia, Goose ‘flu, Riemerellosis, New duck disease, and Polyserositis.
Streptococcus agalactiae detection test kit by using qPCR. Streptococcus agalactiae (also known as group B Streptococcus) was originally discovered as a cause of bovine mastitis (present also in related ungulates) and is part of the normal bacterial flora colonizing the gastrointestinal tract and genitourinary tract of the human population. S. agalactiae poses a serious threat to lives of neonates and to lives of human. This microorganism is considered one of the major causes of economic losses to dairy producers without a control program.
Streptococcus equi subsp.zooepidemicus detection test kit by using qPCR. Streptococcus equi subsp. zooepidemicus is a pathogen of animals primarily affecting horses, in whom it can cause diseases in the upper respiratory tract, uterus, umbilicus, and wounds; but its host range also includes swine, ruminants, guinea pig, monkeys, cats, dogs, poultry, and human. Zoonotic transmission of S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus is rare and is usually associated with drinking unpasteurized milk or through contact with horses by persons who usually have underlying health conditions.
Streptococcus spp. detection test kit by using qPCR. Streptococcus are not pathogenic and form part of the commensal microbiota of the mouth, skin, intestine, and upper respiratory tract. However, some Streptococcus species infect a barrage of different animals, including humans, with diseases such as pink eye, meningitis, bacterial pneumonia, endocarditis, erysipelas and necrotizing fasciitis. Some of these relevant pathogenic species are S. agalactiae, S. dysgalactiae, S. bovis, S. suis, S. pneumoniae or S. gallolyticus.
Taylorella equigenitalis detection test kit by using qPCR. Taylorella equigenitalis is the causative agent of contagious equine metritis in horses. The disease is an inflammatory sexually transmitted disease that is found in both males and females. Once the disease is contracted in the mare, the most common affection is infertility and in pregnant mares, abortion is expected. Other effects in mares, such as cervicitis, endometritis, and varying severities of vaginitis, can occur and occasionally have fatal outcomes.
Trueperella pyogenes (syn. Arcanobacterium pyogenes) detection test kit by using qPCR. Trueperella pyogenes (formerly Arcanobacterium pyogenes) is found in the skin and mucosa of cattle, goats, horses, musk deer, pigs, and sheep, and less frequently appears in birds such as pigeons and turkeys. Under specific and favorable conditions it is involved in cutaneous and systemic abscesses, mastitis, metritis, and pneumonia.
Ureaplasma diversum by using qPCR. Ureaplasma diversum is a common inhabitant of the vagina and prepuce of cattle which has been associated with various reproductive problems. In cows, vaginitis is a common symptom, with endometritis, salpingitis, early embryonic death, weak calves, and decreased conception rates also reported during and after pregnancy. In bulls, balanoposthitis, impaired spermatozoids, and seminal vesiculitis have been observed. Abortions are usually single, but severe outbreaks occur on occasion.
Evaluate the expression of four virulence factors (fedA, faeG, eae and toxA from Escherichia coli) by using qPCR. toxA, coding for the heat-labile enterotoxin (LT); eae, coding for the intimine; fedA, coding for the F18 fimbriae and faeG, coding for the F4 fimbriae. Post-weaning diarrhea is an important enteric disease that usually occurs shortly after weaning and is characterized by watery diarrhea, dehydration, loss of body weight, and the death of infected pigs. This diarrhea is responsible for important economic losses due to mortality, morbidity, decreased growth rate and cost of medication. Escherichia coli is one of the most important causes of the increasing worldwide outbreaks of post-weaning diarrhea, causing sudden death or severe diarrhoea. The PCR identification of virulence factors of E. coli from fecal samples is normally used for the diagnosis of pathogenic isolates.
The Bovine respiratory multiplex (BRM)-Bacteria qPCR kit allows to detect in bovine sample Mycoplasma bovis (M. bovis), Mannheimia haemolytica (M. haemolytica), Pasteurella multocida (P. multocida) and Histophilus somni (H. somni) pathogens in the same reaction with a high sensitivity.
