This invention relates to the field of
biotechnology, and in particular to an antigenic
epitope peptide, product, and application for detecting antibodies produced by
porcine deltacoronavirus infection. This invention identified short
peptide epitopes in PDCoV longitudinal challenge
serum samples, obtaining 12 short peptides, which were then prepared into a
porcine deltacoronavirus antibody detection kit. Finally, six field
serum samples were selected for
antibody detection, and the effectiveness was verified using a
virus neutralization experiment. The results showed that the
porcine deltacoronavirus antibody detection kit provided by this invention is effective. Furthermore, the porcine deltacoronavirus
antibody detection kit provided by this invention, as a novel detection method, improves sensitivity and specificity while simultaneously providing multiple detection results, namely, determining whether
viral infection has occurred, identifying the stage of infection, and achieving DIVA (Differentiation, Infection, and Variability) analysis.
