PG - 210-4 LID - 10.1016/j.jviromet.2009.05.010 [doi] AB - Multiplex PCR and multiplex RT-PCR were developed to identify nine viruses in pigs with multiple infections. These viruses are: porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), suid herpesvirus 1, porcine parvovirus (PPV), porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), Japanese encephalitis virus, porcine rotavirus A (PoRV-A), porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV), transmissible gastroenteritis virus (TGEV), and Getah virus. These methods were shown to be high specificity and sensitivity. In the clinical application, a total of 75 field samples were examined by our methods and previously reported methods for PCV2, PRRSV, TGEV, and PEDV. As a result, the detection rates of our multiplex PCR and multiplex RT-PCR were higher than those of the previously reported methods. Furthermore, it was confirmed that 24 PCV2 positive samples were co-infected with other viruses, 11 with PRRSV, 10 with PPV, 2 with PoRV-A, and 1 with TGEV by a combination of multiplex PCR and multiplex RT-PCR. PPV and PoRV-A were newly detected by multiplex PCR and multiplex RT-PCR. These results suggest that the combination of our multiplex PCR and multiplex RT-PCR is useful for rapid and accurate identification of nine major pathogenic viruses in pigs with multiple infections.
