Abstract:

Based on the 16S rDNA,specific primers and probe were designed,and a TaqMan quantitative polymerase chain reaction assay (TaqMan-PCR) was developed to determinate Lawsonia intracellularis.The results showed that the correlation equation of this TaqMan-PCR method was Ct=-3.318×log(conc)+38.840,and had a good linear relativity (R2=0.998).The TaqMan-PCR prove to be a sensitive,specific,reproducible,and accurate method,and can detecting as little as 5.55 copies•μL-1 standard plasmid with 16S rDNA of L.intracellularis. The new TaqMan-PCR could be applied for qualitative and quantitative detection of L.intracellularis from clinical sample and the evaluation of treatment effect.
