Avian Respiratory Pathogens AGID Kit Development

Avian respiratory diseases can be caused by viruses, bacteria and mycoplasma, and are a common type of disease in poultry farming. Avian respiratory pathogens are diverse and include avian pneumovirus (APV), avian influenza virus (AIV), avian paramyxovirus (APMV), infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV), Avibacterium paragallinarum (A. paragallinarum), Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale (ORT), Mycoplasma synovialis, Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG), etc. These respiratory pathogens can cause avian respiratory diseases independently or interactively, and this interaction may be synergistic or antagonistic, which determines the severity of the disease complex. Avian respiratory disease has a complex etiology and is often caused by multiple pathogens.

Avian Respiratory Pathogens AGID Kit Development

Poor management of avian respiratory diseases can lead to high mortality and cause significant economic losses to public health and the poultry farming industry. Therefore, the development of simple and rapid detection methods is essential for the prevention and control of poultry respiratory diseases. In recent years, with the advancement of medical science and biotechnology, various methods have been developed to detect different avian respiratory pathogens. Agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID) is a simple and economical serological test commonly used to screen poultry flocks for infection with respiratory pathogens. Each test has advantages and disadvantages so that researchers need to consider these factors before selecting the best test.

BioVenic is a supplier of biological reagents and kits, and has been developing diagnostic reagents for animal pathogens for many years. Our goal is to be a great company that improves the health and well-being of pets, humans and livestock. We have a professional team with extensive experience in veterinary diagnostics and reagent development, and our R&D team is working hard to develop and improve AGID kits. We can provide you with a series of customized AGID kits for the detection of avian respiratory pathogens according to your needs. If you have any needs, please feel free to contact us. We will provide you with high-quality products and services.

Workflow of Avian Respiratory Pathogens AGID Kit Development

Workflow Details
Cell culture Avian cells chronically infected with avian respiratory pathogens were cultured in medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, and cell culture supernatants were collected and concentrated to obtain AGID avian respiratory pathogen antigens.
Cloning and expression of recombinant genes Extract genomic DNA, clone recombinant genes and detect recombinant gene expression.
Preparation of recombinant antigens   Preparation of recombinant antigen and determination of the concentration of recombinant antigen.
AGID testing The designated reference serum was tested with AGID to assess the reproducibility of the AGID assay.
