Multiplex PCR Testing for Veterinary Respiratory Pathogens
At Eurolab, we are committed to providing comprehensive and cutting-edge diagnostic testing services tailored specifically to the needs of the veterinary sector. One such service is our multiplex PCR testing for veterinary respiratory pathogens. This advanced methodology allows us to detect multiple pathogens simultaneously from a single sample, which is particularly useful in diagnosing complex infections that may involve several agents.
The primary focus of this testing is on respiratory pathogens commonly encountered in both large and small animal medicine. By leveraging multiplex PCR technology, we can quickly identify the causative organisms responsible for respiratory diseases such as pneumonia, bronchitis, and tracheitis. This approach not only expedites diagnosis but also helps in implementing targeted treatment strategies more efficiently.
Our testing process begins with collecting a representative sample from the patient, which could be nasal swabs, sputum, or bronchoalveolar lavage fluid depending on the clinical presentation and suspected pathogen. The samples are then processed using standardized protocols to ensure consistency across all tests. Once prepared, these samples undergo extraction of nucleic acids followed by amplification reactions conducted in multiple channels within a single reaction mix.
The multiplex PCR assay we employ targets specific regions of the genome unique to each pathogen of interest. This ensures high specificity and sensitivity while minimizing cross-reactivity issues often seen with other diagnostic methods like serology or culture techniques. After amplification, detection is achieved through various chemistries including TaqMan probes or SYBR Green dye, allowing us to visualize the presence of multiple pathogens in a single reaction.
Our laboratory uses state-of-the-art equipment such as ABI 7500 Fast Real-Time PCR Systems manufactured by Applied Biosystems (Thermo Fisher Scientific). These instruments provide accurate quantification of target sequences down to picomolar levels, making them ideal for detecting low-abundance pathogens.
