Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, according to the latest news, the hospital of Harbin Veterinary Research Institute National Avian Influenza Reference Laboratory-cum-animal influenza Key Laboratory of Ministry of Agriculture and the domestic unit of joint research, the successful production of pigs infected with influenza A H1N1 virus, RT-PCR Detection Kit The kit can be in 5 hours for pigs infected with influenza A H1N1 virus, the completion of rapid detection, diagnosis of human infection with influenza A H1N1 influenza virus has a high reference value. The present set of specific detection methods have entered the practical stage, Kazakhstan animal research will be the National Avian Influenza Reference Laboratory has assembled 30000 sets of virus detection kits and distributed throughout the country.
It is reported that occurs outside of human infection with influenza H1N1 flu outbreak, the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences research animals Kazakhstan National Avian Influenza Reference Laboratory, closely follow the developments related to the epidemic, increase scientific and technological research efforts, and in a timely manner the corresponding technical reserves set up a pig infected with influenza A H1N1 virus, prevention and control of the Group of Experts. The reference laboratory with relevant international organizations to obtain the cause of human infection with influenza A H1N1 influenza virus disease gene sequences. Group day and night research, with less than a week to complete the pigs infected with influenza A H1N1 virus, RT-PCR detection methods for primer design and clinical testing, and test kit had sensitivity test, specificity test, stability test , operability tests and trials of the review.
Recently, the Chinese Ministry of Agriculture Animal Health and Epidemiology Center, the National Avian Influenza Reference Laboratory, China Agricultural University, Nanjing Agricultural University, Northwest University of Agriculture and Forestry Science and Technology and other units of experts will hold demonstration on the pigs infected with influenza A H1N1 virus, RT-PCR conducted a review detection methods. Experts believe that the test kit technology is mature, can be used for pigs infected with influenza A H1N1 virus-specific detection, as well as domestic and international pandemic strain of the H1 subtype RT-PCR differential diagnosis for detection of porcine body secretions and culture of the A -type H1N1 virus nucleic acid.
