TechnologySummary
Diagnosis of infectiousdisease in cattle can be challenging, especially when the animal is infectedwith multiple pathogens. Traditionally infectious disease is diagnosed via thedetection of organisms by bacterial culture, virus isolation, or antibody-basedtechniques. These methodologies have limitations, including the need forspecialized staff, inefficiency in growth of cultures and need for propersample handling.
The advantages of a nucleicacid-based technique, such as PCR, are numerous and include speed, sensitivityand specificity. However, PCR has its own challenges in that it is limited bypathogens that can be detected in a single reaction. To address that concern,UGA researchers have developed a Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)-baseddiagnostic panel that is able to detect the presence of 45 different pathogensusing target-specific primers for PCR-mediated amplification. This multiplexpanel has been validated using clinical samples that were subsequently testedwith commonly used diagnostic techniques. These results confirm the validity of using NGS-based techniques inveterinary diagnostics.
