Virus

Detection test kit of Gallid herpesvirus 2 species by using qPCR. Gallid herpesvirus 2 (or Marek’s disease virus; MDV). GaHV-2 is responsible for Marek’s disease, a highly contagious viral neoplastic disease in chickens. The route of infection is usually respiratory and the disease is highly contagious being spread by infective feather-follicle dander, fomites, etc. Infected birds remain viraemic for life. Diagnosis in poultry is complicated due to multiple etiological agents capable of causing very similar tumors.

Goatpox virus detection test kit by using qPCR. Goat pox virus is closely related to Sheeppox virus and Lumpy skin disease virus. The disease is characterized by fever, papules, odular and sometimes pustular lesions on the skin. Transmission is usually by aerosol after close contact with severely affected animals containing ulcerated papules on the mucous membranes.

Infectious bursal disease virus detection test kit by using qPCR. Infectious bursal disease virus, only the serotype 1 viruses cause disease in poultry. The infectious bursal disease virus is responsible for Infectious bursal disease a highly contagious disease in young chickens. It has economic relevance to the poultry industry worldwide due to increased susceptibility to other diseases and negative interference with effective vaccination.

Infectious salmon anemia virus detection test kit by using qPCR. Infectious salmon anemia virus is related to the influenza viruses. It causes severe anemia to Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) affecting fish farms in Canada, Norway, Scotland, and Chile, causing severe losses to infected farms.

Detection by using qPCR of species of the virus causing Lumpy skin disease (LSDV). Lumpy skin disease mainly affects cattle and zebus but has also been seen in giraffes, African buffalo, and impalas. It is spread by biting insects.

Maedi-Visna virus detection test kit by using qPCR. Maedi-Visna is a chronic viral disease prevalent in adult sheep, but rarely can be found in certain species of goat. It causes encephalitis and chronic pneumonitis. It is known as Visna when found in the brain, and Maedi when infecting the lungs. The natural transmission of Maedi-Visna virus is mostly by the respiratory route, but also to newborn lambs by colostrum and milk.

Mouse mammary tumor virus detection test kit by using qPCR. Mouse mammary tumor virus is a milk-transmitted ssRNA retrovirus. MMTV was formerly known as Bittner virus, and previously the ‘milk factor’ referring to the extra-chromosomal vertical transmission of murine breast cancer by adoptive nursing. The majority of mammary tumors in mice are caused by the mouse mammary tumor virus.

Nipah virus detection test kit by using qPCR. Nipah virus is a newly emerging zoonosis that causes severe disease in both animals and humans. The natural host of the virus is fruit bats of the Pteropodidae Family. Nipah virus infection in humans has a range of clinical presentations, from asymptomatic infection to acute respiratory syndrome and fatal encephalitis. The virus is also capable of causing disease in pigs and other domestic animals such as dogs, cats, goats, horses, and sheep.

ORF virus detection test kit by using qPCR. ORF virus is an exanthemous disease occurring primarily in sheep and goats and infection is commonly found throughout the world. It is also known as sore mouth, contagious pustular dermatitis, infectious labial dermatitis, ecthyma contagious, thistle disease and scabby mouth. ORF virus is zoonotic so, it can also infect humans.

Ovine herpesvirus 2 detection test kit by using qPCR. OvHV2 is endemic in sheep populations worldwide and causes malignant catarrhal fever (MCF), a lymphoproliferative disease, in cattle, bison, and deer. OvHV-2 is related closely to Alcelaphine herpesvirus 1 (AlHV-1). These viruses cause inapparent infection in sheep, their main reservoir hosts. However, MCF in pigs has been associated with direct or indirect contact with sheep. BMCF is an important disease where the reservoir and susceptible animals mix.

Porcine circovirus type 2 detection test kit by using qPCR. Porcine circovirus has 2 strains: type 1 and type 2. PCV1 readily infects but doesn’t produce clinical disease, suggesting that PCV1 is non-pathogenic. PCV-2 causes PCV-associated disease (PCVAD) and can be manifested as a systemic disease, as part of the respiratory disease complex, as an enteric disease, as porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome, or as reproductive problems.

Porcine circovirus type 3 detection test kit by using qPCR. Porcine circovirus type 3 (PCV-3) is able to infect swine. This novel virus was isolated from tissues of pigs suffering from porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome, reproductive failure, myocarditis, and multisystemic inflammation. It is thought that PCV-3 has a horizontal transmission and vertical transmission because the viral genome was detected in feces, nasal swabs, oral fluids, trucks transporting pigs, fetuses, semen and colostrum.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus detection test kit by using qPCR. The porcine epidemic diarrhea virus infects the cells lining the small intestine of pigs causing porcine epidemic diarrhea, a condition of severe diarrhea and dehydration. Older hogs mostly get sick and lose weight after being infected, while newborn piglets usually die. PEDV has a substantial economic burden given that it is highly infectious, resulting in significant morbidity and mortality in piglets.

Porcine parvovirus 1 detection test kit by using qPCR. There are other genotypes of Porcine parvovirus (2, 3, 4, 5 and 6) but belong to more distant taxa (different genera). PPV-1 is the most common and important cause of infectious infertility, causing embryonic and fetal death in the absence of maternal clinical signs. The virus is ubiquitous among swine throughout the world and is enzootic in most herds that have been tested. PPV-1 is unusual because it can persist outside the pig for many months and it is resistant to most disinfectants.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus type I detection test kit by using qPCR. Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) causes disease in pigs, called porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome, also known as blue-ear pig disease, characterized by reproductive failure in breeding stock and respiratory tract illness in young pigs. According to the characteristics of their genome, PRRSV can be divided into two genotypes: European (type I) and North American (type II).

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus type 2 detection test kit by using qPCR. PRRSV causes disease in pigs, called porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome, also known as blue-ear pig disease, characterized by reproductive failure in breeding stock and respiratory tract illness in young pigs. According to the characteristics of their genome, PRRSV can be divided into two genotypes: European (type 1) and North American (type 2).
