[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

Methods: Application of nested PCR (nPCR) and DNAsequencing to test samples of urethral/vaginal swabs withMP culture confirmation of several nPCR positive patients. Results: 74 of 786 STD patients were positive for MP bynPCR, with a rate of 9.4%. of the 484 male patients, 10.5%were positive, and among the 302 female patients, 7.6%were positive. There was no significant difference betweenthem (P<0.05). of 12 cases of MP positive samples by nPCR,4 cases were first generation culture-positive, and one ofthem passed to the next generation successfully. DNAsequencing was performed on the nPCR product of oneswab sample and one MP culture isolation. The determinedsequence was identical to the typical MP strain. Conclusion: In China, MP are present in reproductivetract of both male and female STD patients.展开更多
