Abstract
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS), which is primarily characterized by respiratory and reproductive dysfunction, is an epidemic disease caused by porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) that has the potential to economically devastate the global swine industry. Rapid and accurate detection of PRRSV is critical for effective control of PRRS in swine. In this study, a novel one-step, highly sensitive and specific accelerated strand exchange amplification (ASEA) method for the detection of PRRSV was developed. The detection limit of the ASEA method was determined to be 6 copies µL–1 of PRRSV RNA reference material or PRRSV in spiked swine blood. The ASEA method demonstrated the capacity to discern the currently circulating PRRSV genotypes without cross-reactivity with other porcine-derived pathogens that manifest similar clinical signs. The ASEA method exhibited a detection time of 35 min, and its clinical applicability was validated through the analysis of 5 inactivated blood samples and 62 clinical samples. The method’s potential extends beyond the diagnosis of PRRSV, as it can also be applied to the rapid diagnosis of other RNA pathogens. This capacity is expected to make significant contributions to future epidemic prevention and surveillance efforts.
期刊介绍:
Research papers must make a significant and original contribution to
microbiology and be of interest to a broad readership. The results of any
experimental approach that meets these objectives are welcome, particularly
biochemical, molecular genetic, physiological, and/or physical investigations into
microbial cells and their interactions with their environments, including their eukaryotic hosts.
Mini-reviews in areas of special topical interest and papers on medical microbiology, ecology and systematics, including description of novel taxa, are also published.
Theoretical papers and those that report on the analysis or ''mining'' of data are
acceptable in principle if new information, interpretations, or hypotheses
emerge.
