AsurDx Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus (PPRV) Real-Time PCR Detection Kit

The AsurDxTM Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus (PPRV) Real-Time PCR detection kit is designed to detect both the universal and wild strains of PPRV in specimens such as mesenteric and bronchial lymph nodes, spleen, lungs, large intestines, eye conjunctival swabs, nasal and oral swabs, and serum from sheep. It is used for differentiating between PPRV infections and wild strains.

Feature

About Disease


Peste des Petits Ruminants (PPR) is a highly contagious disease caused by the Peste des Petits Ruminants Virus (PPRV), a member of the Morbillivirus genus. It primarily infects sheep and goats, and can also affect wild small ruminants. PPR is mainly prevalent in Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia. The disease was first discovered in China in 2007, and several small outbreaks occurred, initially confined to the Ali region of Tibet. In 2013, the disease re-emerged in Xinjiang and subsequently spread to 22 provinces (autonomous regions or municipalities) in China, causing significant losses to the sheep industry.
