Virus

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).

Rabies virus detection test kit by using qPCR. Rabies virus is the causative agent of acute progressive encephalitis (rabies) in mammals, including humans, and is transmitted through an animal with rabies directly by bites, scratches, or contamination of mucous membranes with infected saliva. Animals with rabies suffer deterioration of the brain and tend to behave bizarrely and often aggressively, increasing the chances that they will bite another animal or a person and transmit the disease.

Detection test kit of all serotypes of Reticuloendotheliosis virus species by using qPCR. Reticuloendotheliosis virus belongs to the group of avian retroviruses. There are different syndromes associated with REV, including a runting disease syndrome, chronic neoplasia of lymphoid and other tissues and acute reticulum cell neoplasia. The various syndromes caused by REV resemble both Marek’s and avian leukosis. Runting disease has been reported in chickens through the application of vaccines contaminated with the virus.

Detection test kit of all serotypes of Rift valley fever virus species by using qPCR. Rift valley fever virus (RVFV) is responsible for Rift valley fever, a viral zoonosis that primarily affects animals but also has the capacity to infect humans. Infection can cause severe diseases in both animals and humans. The virus is transmitted through mosquito vectors, as well as through contact with the tissue of infected animals. Contact with infected tissue is considered to be the main source of human infections. The disease also results in significant economic losses due to death and abortion among RVF-infected livestock.

Rotavirus type A detection test kit by using qPCR. Rotavirus is the most common cause of severe vomiting and diarrhea among infants and young children below the age of five. Viral diarrhea is highly contagious. In addition, rotaviruses infect the young of many species of animals and they are a major cause of diarrhea in wild and reared animals worldwide. As a pathogen of livestock, notably in young calves and piglets, rotaviruses cause economic loss to farmers.

Detection test kit of Schmallenberg virus by using qPCR. Schmallenberg virus (SBV) cause congenital malformations and stillbirths in cattle, sheep, goats, and possibly alpaca. It appears to be transmitted by midges (Culicoides spp.). It has also been detected in most countries of Europe.

Sheeppox virus detection test kit by using qPCR. Sheeppox virus is the etiologic agent of sheeppox on sheep. Sheeppox is a serious, often fatal, and highly contagious disease characterized by widespread skin eruption. Sheep pox is the most severe of all the pox diseases of animals and must be differentiated from the milder infection, contagious ecthyma.

Small ruminant morbillivirus ("Peste-des-petits-ruminants virus") detection test kit by using qPCR. The small ruminant virus is responsible for the Small ruminant morbillivirus disease of sheep and goats. Illness and death can be high (>90%) when Small ruminant morbillivirus occurs in populations of immunologically naive sheep and goats. A unique serotype of PPRV circulates and is classified into 4 genetically distinct lineages with important economic effects.

Suid herpesvirus 1 detection test kit by using qPCR. Suid herpesvirus 1 is responsible of Aujeszky’s disease in swine, usually called pseudorabies. Aujeszky’s disease is considered to be the most economically important viral disease of swine in areas where classical swine fever (hog cholera) has been eradicated. Other mammals, such as cattle, sheep, goats, horses, cats, dogs, and raccoons, are also susceptible. In piglets, signs are much more severe and many die within 2 days.

Swine H1N1 influenza A virus detection test kit by using qPCR. Swine H1N1 influenza A virus is one of the subtypes responsible for swine influenza, which can infect humans through a zoonotic transmission from pigs to humans. It is now a human seasonal flu virus that also circulates in pigs. Like the regular flu, swine flu can lead to more serious problems including pneumonia, lung infection, and other breathing problems.

Swine influenza A virus (H1N1, H3N2 and H1N2) detection test kit by using qPCR. There are different subtypes of influenza A known to affect swine, but the three common strains are H1N1, H1N2 and H3N2. Swine influenza A virus is responsible for swine influenza, also called pig influenza, swine flu, hog flu and pig flu. Swine influenza virus is common throughout pig populations worldwide. In pigs, influenza infection produces fever, lethargy, sneezing, coughing, difficulty breathing and decreased appetite.
