Establishmentof a RPA Assay for Detecting Klebsiella pneumoniae of Rabbit Origin
In order to establish a recombinasepolymerase amplification(RPA)assay for detecting Klebsiella pneumonia of rabbit origin,a pair of primers were designed based on the conservative sequenceof PhoE gene of Klebsiella pneumoniae,and the fragmentwith the length of 277 bp was amplified,then thereaction conditions were further optimized,finally,the RPA assay was established,by which,the Klebsiella pneumoniae of rabbit origin could be specificallydetected with the minimum bacteria of 8.3×101 CFU/mL,and its sensitivity was 100 times higher than that of traditionalPCR. Therefore,the method established in the study hadcharacteristics of strong specificity and simple operation,which would provide a new method for rapid detection of Klebsiellapneumoniae of rabbit origin.
