Abstract:

The aim of this study was to establish a convenient, efficient and specific recombinase-aid amplification (RAA) assay based on the porcine TGEV S gene. Comparing the genome sequence, selecting specific segment of TGEV S gene to construct the recombinant plasmid pUC57-S as templete. RAA primers and probes were designed and screened. RAA assays were established. The sensitivity, specificity and repeatability of the method were evaluated. Verifying the established test method by clinical samples of diarrhea, and compare the consistency with the testing results of the fluorescence quantitative PCR assay. Our results showed that the best primer pair F2/R1 and probe were screened out. The assay can be completed in 30 min at 40 ℃. The lowest detection limit of fluorescent RAA assay was 1.34×101 copies·μL-1. There was no cross reaction with other virus nucleic acid, as porcine epidemic diarrhea virus, porcine delta coronavirus, porcine respiratory coronavirus and other common swine viruses. A total of 107 clinical samples were tested using this method, and positive rate was 5.61% (6/107), which was consistent with the test results of fluorescence quantitative PCR. This study successfully established a sensitive, specific and visual RAA test method, which can get rid of the dependence of expensive equipment, the professional and technical detection technology, and provided a reliable technical basis for the clinical detect of TGEV.
