摘要
为建立一种适用于基层兽医实验室特异、敏感、快速检测牛巴贝斯虫感染的方法,以牛巴贝斯虫球状体蛋白4(SBP4)基因为靶基因设计引物,建立检测牛巴贝斯虫的巢式PCR方法。结果表明,该方法可特异性地检测牛巴贝斯虫感染,与14种动物梨形虫无交叉反应。该方法能够检测到1 copy的SBP4基因,其敏感性分别是对应的内、外引物普通PCR的10倍和1 000倍。应用该巢式PCR方法,对田间随机采集的136份野外样品进行检测,检出阳性样品9份,显著高于AbouLaila等报道的方法(5份)。这些数据表明,建立的巢式PCR方法可用于基层兽医实验室敏感、准确地检测牛巴贝斯虫感染。
To establish a specific,sensitive and rapid detection method for Babesia bovis that is easy-to-use in practice in local veterinary laboratories,a nested PCR was established using the primers designed targeting SBP4 gene of spherical body protein(SBP) of B.bovis.As a result,this method was specific for B.bovis and no cross-reaction was observed with 14 related piroplasm samples.The analytic sensitivity of the method showed to detect as few as 1 copy of SBP4 gene.When compared with the conventional PCR with both outer primers and inner primers of the nested PCR,the sensitivity increased 1 000 times and 10 times,respectively.Using the developed method,136 field samples were detected,and it gave much higher positives(9 samples) than the method of Abou Laila M et al.(5 samples).In conclusion,the established nested PCR can be implied in practice in local veterinary laboratories due to its satisfactory sensitivity and specificity for the detection of B.bovis.
