AccuPower® PRRS virus RT-PCR kit

Overview

PRRS virus is the causative agent of swine genital and respiratory syndrome. It is transferred by breeding infected pigs and results in reproductive disorders. This includes late miscarriage and preterm birth. In worst cases, it can even lead to death. In the Republic of Korea, porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome is listed as Class III domestic animal infectious disease, which causes largest economic loss to the pig industry among other animal diseases, excluding medical complications.

Features and Benefits

• Convenience & Reproducibility
  All reactants necessary for PCR including primers are lyophilized in each PCR tube, providing reproducible results in a convenient way.
  
  
• Sensitivity
  By applying the patented PyroHotStart(Enzyme-mediated HotStart) technology that minimizes non-specific reactions and maximizes reaction efficiency, only the target gene can be effectively amplified even with a trace amount of template DNA.
  
  
• Thermal stability
  Synthesizes complex RNA into cDNA by applying RocketScript™ Reverse transcriptase with excellent thermal stability where it is active even at 70°C.
  
  
• Stability
  Included stabilizer in the PCR reaction mixture provides increased stability compared to solution-type products.
