Validation of a real-time fluorescent PCR assay for 11 sheep and goats pathogens

Validation of a real-time fluorescent PCR assay for 11 sheep and goats pathogens
  • The limit of detection of each positive pathogen was still detected after 6 days at 56℃

Small ruminants are economic mainstay in developing countries because of its direct contribution to food security, but the occurrence of epidemics poses a continuous threat. Early diagnosis can strengthen the prevention of zoonosis. In this study, a high-sensitivity real-time fluorescent PCR freeze-dried type assay that can be stored and transported at room temperature was developed for 11 sheep and goats pathogens. The results showed that there was no non-specific amplification in systems containing different pathogen positive controls; The areas under the ROC curves were all in the range of 0.99 to 1.00; The LOD counted by Digital PCR were 194, 96, ...
