Bovine Viral Diarrhoea Virus RT-LAMP Detection Kit

Bovine Viral Diarrhoea Virus RT-LAMP Detection Kit

Bovine Viral Diarrhoea Virus (BVDV) is a Pestivirus causing significant economic losses in Australia's cattle industry through reduced fertility, immunosuppression, respiratory disease, and fatal mucosal disease. A key concern is the generation of persistently infected (PI) animals - calves infected in utero that continuously shed virus and serve as the primary reservoir for herd transmission. Australia has implemented national BVDV management programs, with particularly active control efforts in Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria. The virus impacts both beef and dairy sectors. Economic losses arise from reproductive failure, calf mortality, reduced growth rates, and increased susceptibility to secondary infections including bovine respiratory disease complex.

Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification (LAMP) is a molecular biology technique that copies DNA or RNA at a single, constant temperature. By eliminating the rapid heat cycling required by traditional PCR, this method relies on specialized strand-displacement polymerases to unzip and replicate genetic material.

This biological approach removes the need for expensive, bulky thermal cyclers, allowing assays to run on simple, low-cost heating equipment. Delivering highly sensitive results in just 20 to 30 minutes, isothermal amplification provides a fast, affordable, and exceptionally portable solution for field testing and decentralized point-of-care diagnostics.

The Bovine Viral Diarrhoea Virus RT-LAMP Detection Kit simplifies detection of Bovine Viral Diarrhoea Virus nucleic acid by amplifying target RNA at a constant temperature.
