In order to produce gE antigen in large quantities and at low cost, a gene fragment encoding PRV gE core epitopes was expressed in E. coli BL21 expression system. SDS-PAGE and Western Blotting revealed that the expression product in culture supematant of E. coli BL21 was a recombinant protein, approximately 51.8 Kd. At 5 h post-induction, protein concentration assay showed that the expression product amounted to 1.65 mg/ml, accounting for 24. 17% of total proteins in the culture supematant. An indirect PRV gE-ELISA was established by using the recombinant expression product as a coating antigen. Cross-reactivity assay showed that this antigen was PRV specific. In addition, the assay was consistently reproducible. Comparison of detection results of 240 serum samples between PRV gE-ELISA and a commercially available PRV diagnostic kit showed that there was no significant difference between these two methods (P 〉 0.05 ).展开更多

[ Method ] SYBR Green I real-time quantitative PCR conditions and system for early detection of latent pseudorabies virus in- fection were optimized and compared with conventional PCR to investigate the sensitivity and specificity. Subsequently, the established assay was applied to detect different clinical samples. [ Result] The sensitivity of SYBR Green I real-time quantitative PCR assay (52 copies/μl) was 1 000 times higher than that of conven- tional PCR (5.2×1^04 copies/μl) and the detection time was shortened by 1/2. The established assay could be used to detect PRV but could not be used to detect PCV2, PPV, CSFV or PRRSV. Various tissues were collected from Bama miniature pigs with latent PRV infection under sterile conditions for real-time PCR detection. Results showed that viral copy number in the brain, nasal swab, inguinal lymph node, liver, lung and spleen was above 20, while PRV was not detected in the kidney and heart tissues. [ Conclusion] The established SYBR Green I real-time quantitative PCR assay for PRV/.AT detection was specific, sensitive and rapid, which could be used for pathogen monitoring, epidemiological investigation and quantitative study of PRV.展开更多

Nine-day-old chicken embryos were inoculated with recombinant freeze-drying chicken interferon via allaotoic sack, while 10-day-old chicken embryos were inoculated with NDV F48E10, and in vivo protective efficacy of interferon on chichen embryos was studied. The results showed that the recombinant freeze-drying chicken interferon at the dose of 1.28 mg/embryo reached the protection ratio of 90% on chicken embryo infected by F48E10.展开更多
According to VP2 gene sequence of the porcine parvovirus virus strain NADL-2 (NC001718) available in GenBank (NC_001718), a pair of specific primer was designed, and the target fragment of 431 bp was obtained by P...According to VP2 gene sequence of the porcine parvovirus virus strain NADL-2 (NC001718) available in GenBank (NC_001718), a pair of specific primer was designed, and the target fragment of 431 bp was obtained by PCR amplification. The products were ligated with pMD18- T vector and then transformed into bacteria DH5α for recombinant plasmid extraction. After PCR identification and sequencing, recombinant plasmid was used as a standard template to establish the standard curve of SYBR Green I fluorescence quantitative PCR. Sensitivity test, specificity test and repeatability test were also determined. The results indicated that there was a good linear relationship between threshold cycle of the standard curve and template concentration, R2 =0.997 6. Tm ranged from 82.3 to 82.9 ℃, while the sensitivity was 72.1 copies/μl with good specificity and repeatability. The developed SYBR Green I real-time quantitative PCR method to detect PPV VP2 gene laid the basis for further studies on patho- oenesis, early clinical diaonosis of this virus and quantitative analysis of PPV infection.展开更多
