This Highly Pathogenic PRRSV Real-time PCR Kit is used to detect PPRSV in swine serum, plasma and tissue samples, which is 100% specific. Applicable for laboratory use.
Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) is a virus that causes a disease of pigs, called porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS), also known as blue-ear pig disease. This economically important, panzootic disease causes reproductive failure in breeding stock and respiratory tract illness in young pigs. The disease costs the United States swine industry around $644 million annually, and recent estimates in Europe found that it costs almost 1.5 billion euro every year.
