Overview
APP is an anaerobic respiratory pathogen responsible for porcine pleural pneumonia. It may happen unexpectedly in pigs of the age of 6-20 weeks, with a high mortality rate even in a short clinical course. Symptoms include lung adhesions, which might lead to chronic disease, and even cause death in 24-36 hours (in acute cases) or 2–5 days (in general case) after the infection. This kit uses a specific polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to distinguish APP from the other swine respiratory diseases.
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. - Stability
Included stabilizer in the PCR reaction mixture provides increased stability compared to solution-type products.
