Maedi-Visna virus (MVV) is a positive single-stranded RNA virus that belongs to the genus Lentivirus within the family Retroviridae. It is grouped together with Caprine Arthritis Encephalitis virus as the small ruminant lentiviruses. Maedi-Visna is the causative agent of encephalitis and chronic pneumonitis in sheep. It can also be known as ovine progressive pneumonia (OPP). Progressive lung disease is the primary sign of Maedi-Visna virus infection. Most of the lentivirus-infected sheep and goats are largely asymptomatic but remain persistent carriers of virus and capable of transmitting it.
Maedi-Visna virus RT-qPCR Kit is designed for the in vitro detection of MVV. The kit is built to have the broadest possible detection profile whilst remaining specific to MVV. Thus, this kit has been designed for the specific (inclusivity) and exclusive (exclusivity) in vitro detection of this species. The primers and probe sequences have very high (>95%) homology with a broad range of MVV genomes based on a comprehensive bioinformatic analysis with all reference data within the NCBI database at the time of design. Due to the inherent instability of RNA viral genomes, it is not possible to guarantee the detection of all clinical isolates.
This kit was meticulously designed and validated to meet the rigorous criteria of a quantitative assay. However, it is important to note that the provided Positive Control is not intended for quantification purposes. We recommend checking NZYtech website for the availability of a suitable Quantitative Standard for an accurate quantification. In alternative, commercially genomic DNA standards can also be used.
If required, a complementary kit for the detection of an endogenous gene of the species from which samples are being extracted is available at NZYtech (see Vet, Food & Pharma). The complementary usage of an Endogenous Detection reaction provides a solid confirmation that nucleic acids were properly extracted from the selected biological matrix. If you require further information or have a specific question about the detection profile of this kit, please send an e-mail to info@NZYtech.com and our scientific team will answer your question. This kit is designed to be used by trained users in a suitable molecular biology laboratory environment.
