The vetproof® Porcine Circovirus Type 2 qPCR Kit (PCV2 qPCR) will detect the presence of DNA from Porcine Circovirus Type 2 in extracts from swine samples (Whole blood, serum and tissues, oral fluid and environmental samples). Primers and probes are specific for Porcine Circovirus Type 2.
The kit contains all reagents and controls required for the detection of Porcine Circovirus Type 2. Amplified products are detected in real-time via a specific labelled hydrolysis probe, which is detected in a designated channel on the qPCR thermocycler. Porcine Circovirus Type 2 is detected in the FAM channel, and an Internal Control (IC) is detected in the HEX channel for identification of PCR inhibition to safeguard against false negative results.
Field applications
■ Tracking PCV2 presence and load to support stable herd health and performance.
■ Diagnosing PCVAD confidently by assessing viral load in clinically affected pigs.
■ Detecting subclinical infections early to prevent unnoticed growth and productivity losses.
■ Assess th viral status across production stages to pinpoint where infection persists.
■ Troubleshooting growth or mortality issues linked to PCV2.
