Establishment and Application of the Microfluidic Chip Assay for Five Kinds of Major Canine Viruses
Rabies virus,pseudorabies virus,canine distemper virus,canine parvovirus and canine coronavirus are five kinds of viruses that cause important infectious diseases of canine,which seriously threaten the health of canine,and are the key pathogenic factors to be screened and examined by the exit-entry ports. In order to improve the efficiency of port entry-exit quarantine for canine,a microfluidic chip assay for the above five viruses was established. Five loop-mediated isothermal amplification(LAMP)assays were specifically established and then solidified on the same plastic chip to prepare a microfluidic chip with high-throughput and rapid detection capacity for clinical detection. The results showed that the established assay had a good specificity where positive samples with targeted genes were obviously amplified only in the reaction tank in corresponding viruses instead of other viruses,and no cross reaction with each other was found;the sensitivity of microfluidic chip was consistent with that of LAMP;the established assay was with good stability and reliability as verified through detecting clinical samples infected with canine distemper virus and canine parvovirus and collected in different periods. Compared to existing nucleic acid detection methods,the microfluidic chip could be used to complete rapid screening of the above five viruses within 40 minutes after the loading of nucleic acids,which could satisfy the needs of rapid quarantine for entry-exit canine animals.
