TaqMan probe-based one-step multiplex real-time RT-PCR assay for the diagnosis of foot-and-mouth disease

Effective control and monitoring the spread of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) relies upon rapid and accurate laboratory detection of FMD virus (FMDV). Therefore, in this report, a multiplex TaqMan probe-based one-step RT-qPCR assay simultaneously targeting FMDV 5′UTR and 3Dpol regions, and 18S rRNA ho...

description Effective control and monitoring the spread of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) relies upon rapid and accurate laboratory detection of FMD virus (FMDV). Therefore, in this report, a multiplex TaqMan probe-based one-step RT-qPCR assay simultaneously targeting FMDV 5′UTR and 3Dpol regions, and 18S rRNA housekeeping gene (as an internal control) in a single reaction tube was developed and evaluated. The multiplex one-step RT-qPCR assay specifically detected viral genome in both FMDV-infected cell culture suspensions and clinical samples collected from known-FMD infected animals. The assay could detect FMDV RNA in the archived FMDV cell culture isolates (n = 120) collected during the last two decades in India. In addition, the new assay could also detect viral RNA in the FMD suspected clinical samples (n = 740) collected from various field outbreaks. At a cut-off Ct-value of <38, the assay could detect at least 20 and 10 copies of FMDV 3Dpol and 5′UTR genes, respectively. Further, the multiplex RT-qPCR assay proved to be robust, showing an inter-assay co-efficient of variations ranging from 1.3% to 3.03% for FMDV-3Dpol gene target, and from 1.44% to 4.69% for 5′UTR gene target. In addition, it was found that the new assay could be used to detect viral genome in a variety of samples (epithelium, saliva, OPF, milk and blood) without any significance difference in the detection limit of the assay. Hence, the multiplex one-step RT-qPCR assay could be considered a valuable tool for the detection of FMDV in India.
