A Highly Sensitive Real-Time Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction for Detecting Nucleocapsid Protein Gene of Both Classes I and Ii of Newcastle Disease Virus
Abstract:Newcastle disease virus (NDV) is a worldwide viral agent that infects over 200 species of birds and is responsible for outbreaks of ND. Although a series of real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR) assays have been developed for detecting different genes of NDV, diagnostic sensitivity and efficiency still can be improved. This study describes a nucleocapsid protein gene rRT-PCR screening assay based on TaqMan technology for the detection of divergent NDV strains. All 23 representativ… Show more
