Abstract

The detection limit of the novel assay for highly pathogenic type 2 porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (HP-PRRSV) is 70 copies of RNA per reaction.

  • A new assay was developed for the rapid detection of HP-PRRSV using a fluorescent probe-based method.
  • The assay showed high specificity, with no cross-reaction observed with other related viruses.
  • Evaluation of 125 clinical samples indicated a strong correlation with existing real-time RT-qPCR assays for HP-PRRSV detection.
  • These findings suggest the assay may be effective for quick identification of HP-PRRSV in clinical settings.
