Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biological detection, and particularly relates to a Chinese mitten crab white spot virus QPCR kit and a use method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is the most harmful virus in shrimp and crayfish aquaculture today, and is now widely prevalent in shrimp farms. WSSV mainly invades subcutaneous tissue, epidermal stratum corneum tissue, antennal glands, hematopoietic tissue, gills, hemolymphatic organs and other tissues and organs, and obvious swollen cells can be seen in severely diseased tissues. Tissue sections of the gills and hepatopancreas of the Chinese mitten crab were observed, and a large number of swollen cells were seen in both the gills and hepatopancreas, which were consistent with the shrimp tissue lesions caused by WSSV. In recent years, with the continuous deterioration of the aquaculture environment, the pathogenicity of WSSV has shown an increasing trend, and its host range is also expanding. Electron microscopic observations showed that WSSV is spindle-shaped, with virus particles about 210-380nm long and 70-167nm wide. One side is thick and flat and the other side is thin. The thin side has a long flagellum-like structure. It is the animal virus with the largest genome discovered so far. In 2000, scientists sequenced the entire genome of the mainland strain. The viral genome is a double-stranded circular DNA molecule with an A+T content of 59% and a genome size of 305kb.
[0003] Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis), also known as river crab, belongs to the genus Eriocheir, family Grapsidae, order Decapoda, class Crustacea, and is an important economic crab. At present, the aquaculture of Chinese mitten crab is developing rapidly and has formed a large-scale. With the continuous increase in consumption, in order to improve the economic benefits of aquaculture, a multi-species mixed aquaculture model is often adopted in production, such as mixed aquaculture of Procambarus clarkii and Chinese mitten crab. However, in recent years, after entering June, a large number of deaths of Procambarus clarkii often occur, and then a large number of Chinese mitten crabs in the same aquaculture pond die. In severe cases, all Procambarus clarkii and Chinese mitten crabs in the entire pond die, causing huge economic losses to farmers and seriously threatening the healthy and sustainable development of Chinese mitten crab aquaculture. Therefore, investigating and detecting the infection of Chinese mitten crab with WSSV during aquaculture will help improve the success of Chinese mitten crab aquaculture. Summary of the invention
[0004] The present invention aims to provide a Chinese mitten crab white spot virus QPCR kit and a use method and application thereof, wherein the kit can detect the situation of Chinese mitten crab being infected with WSSV during the breeding process.

[0032] The present invention is specifically described below by way of examples.
[0033] Example 1
[0034] The Chinese mitten crab white spot virus QPCR kit prepared in Example 1 includes DNA polymerase and reaction buffer. The DNA polymerase and reaction buffer directly use commercially available 2X Premix Ex Taq Mix. A negative control may be provided. The negative control is 0.01 mol / L, pH 7.2 PBS buffered saline. In addition, the following primer pairs are included:
[0035] Upstream primer WSSV-F (SEQ ID NO. 1): 5′CCCAGTCGGGGGATAACTAC 3′;
[0036] Downstream primer WSSV-R (SEQ ID NO. 2): 5′ACTAGCTAATCCCACCTGGGTTC 3′.
[0037] The final concentration of the above primers is 2mM to 10mM.
[0038] The detection method of the above-mentioned Chinese mitten crab white spot virus QPCR kit prepared in this Example 1 is carried out according to the following steps:
[0039] (1) Extracting nucleic acid from the sample to be tested: using a commercial nucleic acid extraction kit to extract nucleic acid from the sample to be tested;
[0040] (2) Prepare the amplification reaction system: The system is: 20 μL PCR amplification reaction solution, including 10 μL 2X Premix Ex Taq Mix, 0.5 μL of each primer, 6 μL sterile water, and 3 μL of the sample nucleic acid to be tested. The details are shown in Table 1.
[0041] Table 1 Amplification reaction system
[0042] Composition Dosage 2X Premix Ex Taq Mix 10μL Upstream primer WSSV-F (10nM) 0.5μL Downstream primer WSSV-R (10mM) 0.5μL Sample DNA template 3μL Add sterile water to 20μL
[0043] (3) Fluorescence quantitative PCR amplification: The prepared amplification reaction system in the PCR tube was placed in a fluorescence quantitative PCR instrument for amplification reaction. The amplification reaction conditions were as follows: pre-denaturation at 95°C for 30 seconds; denaturation at 95°C for 5 seconds, annealing and extension at 60°C for 30 seconds, and collecting fluorescence signals for 40 cycles.
[0044] (4) Result determination: After the fluorescence quantitative PCR reaction is completed, the amplification curve of the corresponding channel is obtained ( Figure 1 ), observe whether the target detection fluorescence signal in the specific PCR reaction system forms an amplification curve. If the fluorescence curve has an S-shaped amplification curve formed by the FAM signal and the ct value of the channel is less than 36, it means that the Chinese mitten crab white spot virus is present in the sample to be tested.
[0045] Example 2
[0046] According to the Chinese mitten crab white spot virus QPCR kit and the supporting detection method prepared in Example 1 of the present invention, 13 strains of Chinese mitten crab white spot virus were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR, and the specific process is as follows:
[0047] 1) Sample nucleic acid extraction: 13 samples were to be extracted, including 13 samples of Chinese mitten crab white spot virus, which were extracted using commercial bacterial nucleic acid extraction kits to obtain the samples to be tested;
[0048] 2) Take 3 μL of the above-mentioned sample to be tested and the PCR reaction solution in the detection kit, mix them separately, add them to the PCR reaction tube, mix them by pipetting, and place them on the fluorescent quantitative PCR instrument for reaction;
[0049] 3) The PCR amplification reaction procedure was as follows: pre-denaturation at 95°C for 30 seconds; denaturation at 95°C for 5 seconds, annealing and extension at 60°C for 30 seconds, and collecting fluorescence signals for 40 cycles;
[0050] 4) Result analysis: First, electrophoresis can be used to determine whether the size of the PCR product meets the experimental expectations (specific results are as follows Figure 2 The result is judged by the size of the fluorescence amplification curve Ct value to determine whether the sample contains Chinese mitten crab white spot virus. Figure 3 When the Ct value is ≤36 and shows obvious exponential growth, the result is positive; when the Ct value of the amplification curve is >36 or there is no Ct value, the result is negative; in order to have a reference when judging the test results; a negative control needs to be set for the Chinese mitten crab white spot virus fluorescent PCR detection kit when testing samples.
[0051] Example 3 Specific detection of WSSV primer pairs
[0052] WSSV, reovirus, and herpes simplex virus genomic DNA were used as templates, and WSSV primer pairs (primer pair 1 composed of nucleotide sequences shown in SEQ ID No. 1 and SEQ ID No. 2) were used as primers. Amplification was performed according to the amplification system and reaction conditions in Example 1, and the amplification results were detected by electrophoresis. The test results are shown in Table 2. It can be seen from the table that only the result using WSSV genomic DNA as a template is positive, and the results of other groups are negative. This shows that the WSSV primer pair has high specificity.

[0054]
[0055] Example 4 Sensitivity Detection of WSSV Primers
[0056] The OD was measured by spectrophotometer, and the concentration of WSSV genomic DNA obtained in Example 1 was 12000 μg / μL. Before the experiment, the concentration was adjusted to 3 μg / mL, and the WSSV sample was diluted 10 times (from 3×10 -2 ng to 3×10 -7 ng), using WSSV genomic DNA as a template, amplification was performed according to the PCR reaction system and amplification system of Example 1. The results are shown in Figure 4It can be seen that when the content of WSSV genomic DNA is greater than 3×10 -7 ng can achieve effective amplification.
