Trypanosoma spp. detection test kit by using qPCR. Trypanosoma spp. infect a variety of different vertebrates, including animals and humans. The majority of species are transmitted by blood-feeding invertebrates, but there are different mechanisms among the varying species. Trypanosomes infect a variety of hosts and cause various diseases. This design detects the majority of Trypanosoma species, but excludes T. congolense, T. vivax and Trypanozoon.
Trypanosoma vivax detection test kit by using qPCR. Trypanosoma vivax is the causative agent of the disease nagana, also known as animal trypanosomiasis, affecting cattle and wild mammals. Symptoms of T. vivax include fever, anorexia, lethargy, anemia, progressive emaciation, a rapid decline in milk production, stillborn offspring, and a return to oestrus. T. vivax transmission occurs through a biological vector, the tsetse fly.
Trypanozoon subgenus (T. evansi, T. brucei, T. equiperdum) detection test kit by using qPCR. Trypanosomes are responsible for nagana and sleeping sickness; T. evansi, which causes surra; and T. equiperdum which causes horse dourine. The Trypanozoon taxa are morphologically indistinguishable, with the main differences between them being the host or the insect vector that enables their distribution.
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.
Ureaplasma urealyticum detection test kit by using qPCR. Ureaplasma urealyticum is commonly found in sexually active humans. U. urealyticum is present as a pathogen in pelvic inflammatory disease and had also been associated with a number of diseases in humans, including nonspecific urethritis, infertility, chorioamnionitis, stillbirth, premature birth, and, in the perinatal period, pneumonia, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and meningitis.
Verticillium dahliae detection test kit by using qPCR. Verticillium dahlia is a fungal plant pathogen with a cosmopolitan distribution that can infect many plant genera. Agricultural hosts include spinach, strawberries, lettuce, and artichokes, among others. The most common way to introduce V. dahliae in the field is by infected stock being planted. Once the pathogen is in the field it can be moved by wind, water, and soil. This a very difficult pathogen to control because it can persist in the soil for years without a susceptible host. V. dahliae can cause significant losses in yield due to reduced photosynthesis if the plant survives.
Detection test kit of pathogenic strains of Vibrio cholerae by using qPCR. Some strains of V. cholerae cause the disease cholera. V. cholerae pathogenicity genes code for proteins directly or indirectly involved in the virulence of the bacteria. During infection, V. cholerae secretes cholera toxin, a protein that causes profuse, watery diarrhea. Colonization of the small intestine also requires the toxin coregulated pilus, a thin, flexible, filamentous appendage on the surface of bacterial cells.
Vibrio parahaemolyticus by using qPCR. Vibrio parahaemolyticus when ingested, causes gastrointestinal illness in humans. While infection can occur via the fecal-oral route, ingestion of bacteria in raw or undercooked seafood, usual oysters, is the predominant cause of the acute gastroenteritis caused by V. parahaemolyticus. Wound infections also occur, but are less common than seafood-borne diseases.
Vibrio spp. detection test kit by using qPCR. Vibrio are commonly found in marine or estuarine environments. However, they can be found in freshwater environments as well. Several species of the Vibrio genus can cause foodborne infection, usually associated with eating undercooked seafood. Despite most disease-causing strains being associated with gastroenteritis, can also infect open wounds and cause septicemia. Many Vibrio species are also zoonotic. They cause disease in fish and shellfish and are common causes of mortality among marine life. Some examples of pathogenic Vibrio species include V. cholera, V. parahaemolyticus, and V. vulnificus.
Detection test kit of Viral nervous necrosis by using qPCR. VNN is caused by betanodaviruses (Nodaviridae) and had seriously damaged global marine aquaculture. The diseases caused by these viruses are commonly known as viral nervous necrosis (VNN) or viral encephalopathy and retinopathy (VER). These viruses damage the central nervous system in susceptible fish species.
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.
