Piscine reovirus RT-qPCR Kit is designed for the in vitro detection of Piscine reovirus genomes. 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. Piscine reovirus (PRV) is a double-stranded RNA virus that primarily affects salmonid fish species, such as salmon and trout. This virus has been linked to heart and skeletal muscle inflammation (HSMI) in these fish, posing a significant concern for aquaculture and wild fish populations. Piscine reovirus RT-qPCR Kit is designed for the in vitro detection of Piscine reovirus genomes. The kit is built to have the broadest possible detection profile whilst remaining specific to P. reovirus. 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 P. reovirus 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.
