Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microbial detection, and particularly relates to a detection primer and probe for trypanosoma crocea and applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] Large yellow croaker is an important marine aquaculture fish with a large aquaculture yield. The frequent occurrence of various bacterial, viral, and parasitic diseases poses a major threat to the healthy development of the large yellow croaker aquaculture industry. As an emerging parasitic pathogen with a long epidemic period, trypanosomes cause extremely high mortality rates in large yellow croaker, resulting in huge economic losses to the large yellow croaker industry and are a major parasitic pathogen that endangers the large yellow croaker industry. Currently, detection of this pathogen mainly relies on microscopic examination or comparison analysis based on genetic nucleic acid sequences, which cannot meet the production requirements for sensitive and rapid diagnosis of pathogens. Quantitative PCR detection methods based on the SYBR Green I dye method have the technical defect of low specificity in application. Given the serious harm this pathogen poses to the large yellow croaker aquaculture industry, the establishment of sensitive, specific, and rapid molecular detection methods for this pathogen has become an urgent requirement for the healthy development of the industry.

Tr The concentration of pMD18_ was determined by using a nucleic acid concentration meter (NanoDrop 2000c). Tr The concentration was then converted into the target gene copy number by calculation and stored at -20℃ for future use.
