Using PCR technology has very important significance to the correct diagnosis of Mycoplasmal pneumonia at the early stage. In this paper, specific target genes of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, methods for clinical sample collection, key technical factors of DNA sample processing method, and the research progress, main advantages and disadvantages, and application of general PCR technology, multiple PCR technology, nested-PCR technology, real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR technology, gene chip detection technology and loop-mediated isothermal amplification in detection of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae were summarized, which provided convenience for the effective diagnosis and prevention of Mycoplasmal pneumonia of swine.展开更多

[Method] Nasal swabs were collected from pigs of different ages＇ i.e. 7, 14, 21, 28, 30 and 35 days old, soaked in sterile 1 xPBS overnight at 4 ℃ and DNA extracted using the TIANamp（R） bacterial DNA kit. The DNA samples underwent amplification under the Mhyo 183 q-PCR and P36 primer Nested PCR systems. [Result] With the Nested PCR assay, 38 （12.5%） out of 303 samples tested positive for the presence of M. hyopneumoniae; with the real time PCR assay 152 （50.2%） tested positive for M. hyopneumoniae. The two assays matched to positively detect Mhyo in 22 （7.3%） samples and again matched in 127 （41.9%） samples negative for Mhyo infection. The pattern of infection in both assays was similar where 7- and 35-day-old piglets in both assays had the highest rates of infection i.e. 15.6% and 18.4% for n-PCR and 53.1% and 56.6% for q-PCR for 7- and 35-day-old piglets respectively. [Conclusion] The results highlight the suitability of both PCR assays in establishing the herd infection status of pigs in field conditions.展开更多
