Description: Porcine cytomegalovirus (Porcine CMV) is a double-stranded DNA virus that belongs to the genus Cytomegalovirus within the Herpesviridae family. Porcine CMV is endemic in the world pig population. Infection by Porcine CMV occurs in pigs during early life and results in seroconversion and lifelong latent infection. When infection becomes active in piglets causes fatal systemic failure. Clinical signs include pneumonia and inclusion body rhinitis (IBR), and there is a high mortality rate. Porcine cytomegalovirus qPCR Kit designed for the in vitro detection of porcine CMV genomes. The kit is built to have the broadest possible detection profile whilst remaining specific to porcine CMV. Thus, this kit has been designed for the specific (inclusivity) and exclusive (exclusivity) in vitro detection of this species. The primers and probe sequences have very high (>95%) homology with a broad range of porcine CMV genomes based on a comprehensive bioinformatic analysis with all reference data within the NCBI database. Other closely related species are not detected. If required, a complementary kit for the detection of an endogenous gene of the species from which samples are being extracted is available at NZYTech (see Vet, Food & Pharma). The complementary usage of an Endogenous Detection reaction provides a solid confirmation that nucleic acids were properly extracted from the selected biological matrix. If you require further information or have a specific question about the detection profile of this kit, please send an e-mail to info@nzytech.com and our scientific team will answer your question. This kit is designed to be used by trained users in a suitable molecular biology laboratory environment.
