Abstract
This study evaluated sample processing methods and the presence of organic matter on detection of porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) from environmental samples using real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Steel coupons were inoculated with PEDV and different types of organic material contamination. Surface samples were collected and processed in one of four ways: none, centrifugation, syringe filtration, or combination of centrifugation and syringe filtration, then submitted for PEDV qRT-PCR. There was a surface inoculation type by processing method interaction (P < .001) that impacted the sample cycle threshold value. Centrifugation resulted in the most consistent detection of PEDV RNA.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Swine Health & Production (JSHAP) is an open-access and peer-reviewed journal published by the American Association of Swine Veterinarians (AASV) since 1993. The aim of the journal is the timely publication of peer-reviewed papers with a scope that encompasses the many domains of applied swine health and production, including the diagnosis, treatment, management, prevention and eradication of swine diseases, welfare & behavior, nutrition, public health, epidemiology, food safety, biosecurity, pharmaceuticals, antimicrobial use and resistance, reproduction, growth, systems flow, economics, and facility design. The journal provides a platform for researchers, veterinary practitioners, academics, and students to share their work with an international audience. The journal publishes information that contains an applied and practical focus and presents scientific information that is accessible to the busy veterinary practitioner as well as to the research and academic community. Hence, manuscripts with an applied focus are considered for publication, and the journal publishes original research, brief communications, case reports/series, literature reviews, commentaries, diagnostic notes, production tools, and practice tips. All manuscripts submitted to the Journal of Swine Health & Production are peer-reviewed.
