The invention provides a method for enriching viruses from faeces rapidly and efficiently, amplifying signals through gold nanoparticles crosslinked through specific DNA labels and then rapidly detecting early-state PEDV infection with a PCR. According to the method, an PRF1a gene located in a PEDV whole genome is adopted as a target sequence, specific nucleic acid probes are designed, second-segment probes which are high in specificity, great in virus enriching capability and easy to amplify and detect are screened out of the specific nucleic acid probes and optimized, and by means of functionalized magnetic particles and nanogold particles of the second-segment probes, a PCR detection technology based on nanoparticle PEDV specificity is established; meanwhile, by means of the technical method, the technical breakthrough of conducting a direct hybridization reaction between faeces sample lysate and the functionalized magnetic particles is achieved, the step of purifying a sample nucleic acid is completely omitted, specificity and sensitiveness are improved, meanwhile, the detection step is simplified, and detection time is shortened. By means of the method, time and labor are saved, cost is low, and in addition, the animal virus infection level can be prompted accurately.
