Pigeon Circovirus (PiCV) Nucleic Acid Detection Kit

Pigeon circovirus (immunosuppression)

Pathogen Detection

Product overview

A high-sensitivity fluorescent probe PCR kit designed for pigeon circovirus (PiCV). Circovirus is a silent driver of immunosuppression in racing pigeons; this kit can detect latently infected carriers and is used for loft health screening, quarantine of newly introduced birds and investigation of immunosuppression.

Technical features

🎯

High specificity

Specific primers and probes are designed against conserved pathogen regions to reduce non-specific amplification.

🔬

High sensitivity

Fluorescent probe chemistry is sensitive enough to detect low-copy-number nucleic acid.

🛡️

Anti-contamination

A built-in dUTP/UNG system removes false positives caused by residual PCR aerosol.

📊

Reliable results

Supplied with internal-control quality checks to support confidence in the process and the result.

Workflow

  1. 1 Sample collection: collect throat swabs, cloacal swabs or faecal samples using standard technique
  2. 2 Nucleic acid extraction: extract DNA/RNA from the sample
  3. 3 Set-up and amplification: add the reaction mix and run the amplification programme
  4. 4 Result interpretation: read the result from the fluorescence signal together with the internal control
