Development of multiplex TaqMan qPCR for simultaneous detection and differentiation of eight common swine viral and bacterial pathogens.

ABSTRACT: It is laborious to diagnose the infections of classical swine fever virus (CSFV), porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), and Suid herpesvirus 1 (SuHV-1) because of the similar clinical symptoms in piglets. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Streptococcus suis (S. suis), Salmonella choleraesuis (S. choleraesuis, serotype: 6,7:c:1,5), and Escherichia coli (E. coli) are common secondary bacterial pathogens in viral infections. Furthermore, the mixed infection of these viral and bacterial pathogens is more and more common in practical swine breeding. Therefore, a TaqMan multiplex qPCR method for simultaneous detection and differentiation of their pathogen was established in this study by designing specific primers and probes for the E2 ge
