Development of Nano-qPCR assay for the diagnosis of Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis Virus
IBRV causes severe respiratory and reproductive diseases in cattle, leading to significant economic losses. To improve diagnostic efficiency, this study developed a Nano-qPCR assay targeting the conserved UL50 gene of IBRV. The assay demonstrated high specificity, with no cross-reactivity to other tested bovine pathogens. Sensitivity testing demonstrated that Nano-qPCR could detect IBRV at concentrations as low as 3.5 × 10⁰ copies/μL, whereas conventional qPCR failed to detect it at this level. The assay was validated using clinical samples (nasal/oral swabs, feces, blood, and tissues) from unvaccinated cattle suspected of IBRV infection. Among 68 samples, Nano-qPCR detected six additional positive cases missed by conventional qPCR, which were later confirmed as IBRV-positive by viral isolation in MDBK cells. This confirmed the superior sensitivity of Nano-qPCR. In conclusion, the Nano-qPCR assay offers a rapid, cost-effective, and highly sensitive method for IBRV detection, making it a promising tool for disease surveillance and control in the cattle industry.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Virological Methods focuses on original, high quality research papers that describe novel and comprehensively tested methods which enhance human, animal, plant, bacterial or environmental virology and prions research and discovery.
The methods may include, but not limited to, the study of:
Viral components and morphology-
Virus isolation, propagation and development of viral vectors-
Viral pathogenesis, oncogenesis, vaccines and antivirals-
Virus replication, host-pathogen interactions and responses-
Virus transmission, prevention, control and treatment-
Viral metagenomics and virome-
Virus ecology, adaption and evolution-
Applied virology such as nanotechnology-
Viral diagnosis with novelty and comprehensive evaluation.
We seek articles, systematic reviews, meta-analyses and laboratory protocols that include comprehensive technical details with statistical confirmations that provide validations against current best practice, international standards or quality assurance programs and which advance knowledge in virology leading to improved medical, veterinary or agricultural practices and management.
