A validated quantitative polymerase chain reaction assay for the detection of ranaviruses (Family Iridoviridae) in fish tissue and cell cultures, using EHNV as a model
2012-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Viruses in the genus Ranavirus (Family Iridoviridae) are important pathogens of fish, amphibians and reptiles and likely have a global distribution. Certification of freedom from infection, prevalence surveys, surveillance and routine diagnosis are hampered by lack of a validated rapid molecular test. In this study, a quantitative PCR (qPCR) assay for the detection of the major capsid protein gene of ranaviruses w...
