利用侧流核酸试纸条快速检测非洲猪瘟病毒

为满足基层普通实验室或养殖场等资源有限的实验室对非洲猪瘟病毒(African swine fever virus,ASFV)的检测需求,该研究开发了一种简单、快速、低成本的检测技术,可以用肉眼观察检测结果。研究将传统聚合酶链式反应(polymerase chain reaction,PCR)与胶体金试纸条技术结合,开发一种低成本的侧流核酸测定试纸条(lateral flow nucleic acid assay,LFNAA)。该体系设计了独特的尾引物,避免了传统核酸试纸条的半抗原标记及抗体的使用。经过PCR扩增后产生一端带着单链寡核苷酸尾巴的双链DNA产物,能够与胶体金标记的寡核苷酸捕获探针结合,从而在试纸条上形成可以用肉眼观察的目标产物。该LFNAA试纸条能够在猪瘟病毒(Classical swine fever virus,CFSV)、猪瘟病毒猪繁殖与呼吸综合征病毒(Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus,PRRSV)、猪圆环病毒1型(Porcine circovirus 1,PCV1)、猪圆环病毒2型(Porcine circovirus 2,PCV2)、猪伪狂犬病毒(Pseudorabies virus,PRV)、猪细小病毒(Porcine parvovirus virus,PPV)中特异的鉴定出ASFV的存在,其灵敏度与琼脂糖凝胶电泳的分析结果一致,均能达到103 copies/μL。因此,仅需要一台普通PCR仪,即可对ASFV进行快速灵敏的鉴定(<2 h),其低成本、操作简便的特点非常适合资源有限的实验室中非专业人员的操作。此外,该技术可进一步结合等温扩增技术,能够在食品安全和医学诊断中实现更快更简便的现场检测。

Intestinal microflora molecular markers of spleen-deficient rats and evaluation of traditional Chinese drugs

AIM:To find a rapid and efficient analysis method of gastrointestinal microflora in Pi-deficient(spleen-deficient) rats and to evaluate traditional Chinese drugs.METHODS:Enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus-PCR(ERIC-PCR) based assay was performed to examine changes of intestinal microflora in two Pi-deficienct animal models and to evaluate the efficacy of four traditional Chinese drugs as well as a probiotic recipe and another therapy in Pi-deficient rats.RESULTS:A molecular marker was identified for Pi-deficiency in rats.The pharmacodynamic evaluation system,including identified molecular markers(net integral area and abundance of DNA bands),Shannon's index for diversity of intestinal microflora,and Sorenson's pairwise similarity coefficient,was established.The four major clinical recipes of traditional Chinese drugs for Pi-deficiency in rats,especially at their medium dose(equivalence to the clinical dose),produced more pronounced recovery activities in Pi-deficient rats,while higher doses of these recipes did not show a better therapeutic effect but some toxic effects such as perturbation deterioration of intestinal microflora.CONCLUSION:Both fingerprint analysis and identified marker can show Pi-deficiency in rats and its difference after treatment.The identified molecular marker may be applied in screening for the active compounds both in relative traditional Chinese drugs and in pharmacodynamic study of Pi-deficiency in rats.
