AsurDx Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2) Real-Time PCR Detection Kit

The AsurDxTM Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV-2) Real-Time PCR detection kit is suitable for detecting PCV2 in samples from dead pigs (including aborted fetuses) or culled pigs, including major organs (lymph nodes, spleen, lungs, kidneys, and liver), serum, etc. It is used for the auxiliary diagnosis of PCV2 infections.

Feature


  • Rapid: Results are obtained within 60 minutes.
  • Ready to use: Simply mix the reagents, add to reaction plate, and add samples or controls.  No need for extra processing minutes.
  • Adaptable: Many kits are able to utilize a variety of tissues from live or dead animals, body fluids, blood, waste products, or even cell culture to obtain nucleic acid for analysis.
  • Simple: Results are determined easily by Ct value.
  • Flexible: Kits can be analyzed by ABI7500, Agilent MX3000P/3005P, LightCycler, Bio-Rad, Eppendorf, and other series of fluorescent quantitative PCR detection instruments.

About Disease


Porcine circovirus disease is an infectious, congenital tremor, and multi-system dysfunction disease in piglets caused by the Porcine Circovirus (PCV). The virus has two serotypes, PCV1 and PCV2. PCV1 is non-pathogenic, while PCV2 has strong immunosuppressive effects. Clinically, PCV2 often leads to mixed infections with multiple pathogens and is closely related to Post-Weaning Multisystemic Wasting Syndrome (PMWS). It can also cause Porcine Dermatitis and Nephropathy Syndrome, Respiratory Syndrome, and A2 Congenital Tremor, resulting in significant economic losses to the swine industry. Therefore, early diagnosis of PCV2 infection is particularly important.
