Does a fluorescent quantitative real-time PCR assay improve the detection and quantification of Goose parvovirus in vivo compared to conventional gel-based PCR?
A newly developed fluorescent quantitative real-time PCR assay provides highly sensitive, specific, and reproducible detection of Goose parvovirus in vivo.
Yang et al. (2009) studied Goose parvovirus (GPV) infection (n=50). Fluorescent quantitative real-time PCR (FQ-PCR) vs. Conventional PCR was evaluated on Detection limit and sensitivity. The developed FQ-PCR assay had a detection limit of 2.8 × 10^1 standard DNA copies, demonstrating a sensitivity 3 logs higher than conventional PCR for detecting Goose parvovirus in vivo.
