IDV Screening in Bovine Respiratory Outbreaks

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The IDV screening was performed from 696 respiratory outbreaks in 725 bovine farms in Northern Italy. From January 2018 to May 2019, 936 samples (664 nasal swabs, 250 lung tissues and 22 bronchoalveolar fluids) were collected by field veterinarians for diagnostic purposes during bovine respiratory outbreaks in the Italian regions of Piemonte, Lombardia, Emilia Romagna, Veneto, Trentino Alto Adige and Friuli Venezia Giulia. The specimens were refrigerated at 4 °C prior to analysis. RNA extraction was performed generally within 48 h from sampling but if tests were delayed for more than 2 days, specimens were frozen at −70 °C. Viral RNA was extracted from clinical samples using One-For-All Vet Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) according to the manufacturer’s instructions and RT-PCR was performed targeting IDV PB1 gene [18 (link)]. PCR was performed by using QIAGEN Quantifast Probe RT-PCR kit+IC with IDV F (5′TGGATGGAGAGTGCTGCTTC′), IDV R (3′GCCAATGCTTCCTCCCTGTA3′) and IDV Probe (FAM-CATGTTAAACATTCCCATCAGCATTCCT −BHQ1). Retrotranscription step was at 50 °C for 20 min followed by 95 °C for 5 min; PCR reaction was performed with 45 cycles of 15 s at 94 °C, 60 s at 60 °C followed by fluorescence detection. The analytical cutoff for positivity was established at Ct value of 38.

Quantitative Detection of SARS-CoV-2 Subgenomic RNA

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Viral subgenomic mRNA (sgRNA) is transcribed in infected cells and is not packaged into virions. Thus, presence of sgRNA is indicative of active infection of a mammalian cell in samples. We therefore measure sgRNA in all BAL samples obtained targeting the E gene as previously described.19 (link),20 (link) Briefly, five μl RNA was used in a one-step real-time RT-PCR assay to sgRNA (forward primer 5’- CGATCTCTTGTAGATCTGTTCTC-3’; reverse primer 5’- ATATTGCAGCAGTACGCACACA-3’; probe 5’-FAMACACTAGCCATCCTTACTGCGCTTCG-ZEN-IBHQ-3’) and using the Quantifast Probe RT-PCR kit (Qiagen) according to instructions of the manufacturer. In each run, standard dilutions of counted RNA standards were run in parallel to calculate copy numbers in the samples.

Total RNA was isolated from cells using Universal RNA Purification Kit (Eurx). Transcripts of IFN-α, CXCL9, CXCL10, TNF-α, and GADPH were quantified using TaqMan® Gene Expression Assays (Thermo Fisher Scientific). All PCR reactions were carried out with QuantiFast Probe RT-PCR Kit (QIAGEN, Hilden, Germany) using a real-time PCR instrument Stratagene MX4000 Real-Time qPCR System (Agilent Technologies) according to the manufacturer's protocol.

Total RNA was extracted from the mouse liver using an RNeasy plus mini kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). Quantitative real-time RT-PCR was performed using a QuantiFast Probe RT-PCR kit (Qiagen) with the predesigned primer and probe sets for mouse Plg and Rn18s (reference gene), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Amplification and quantification were performed using an Mx 3000P QPCR system (Agilent Technologies). Each RNA sample was analyzed in triplicate. The Plg mRNA levels in wild-type mice were defined as 100%.

Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus Detection

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All OPF, heparinised blood, urine and faeces suspension samples were tested for presence of FMDV by plaque count on monolayers of secondary lamb kidney cells (virus isolation, VI). Samples were tested in 2 wells of a six-well plate using 200 μL per well, as previously described [20 (link)]. All OPF samples were also tested for presence of FMDV by RT-PCR. RNA isolation was performed using the Magna Pure LC total Nucleid Acid Isolation kit® (Roche) and the MagNa Pure 96 system® (Roche). Isolated RNA was tested in a LightCycler 480 Real-Time PCR System® (Roche) using a QuantiFast Probe RT-PCR kit® (Qiagen), all in accordance with the manufacturers’ instructions. The primers, probes and test protocol used have been previously described [21 (link)].

Published One-step Real Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) was used to evaluate RNA pooled extracts from cloacal swab samples for the presence of NDV (APHA, 2015 ), UK Protocol. Molecular detection of NDV RNA was performed by using one-step RT-PCR directed at the fusion (F) gene described by Kim et al. (2013) (link). Any sample that was reactive to the assay (threshold Ct value ≤40) was considered as reactive for NDV.
QuantiFast® Probe RT-PCR Kit (Qiagen; Catalog No. 204454) was used for the detection of NDV in the viral extracts in ABI Fast Real-Time PCR Machine (ABI 7500).
The components of the master mix along with thermal profiles and the sequences of the primers and probes have been given in the supplemental Tables 2 and 3.

All oral swab, heparinised blood, urine, and faeces samples were tested for the presence of FMDV as described previously [11 (link)], using plaque titration on monolayers of secondary lamb kidney cells (VI, i.e. detection of infectious virus particles). In addition all oral swab and probang samples were tested for the presence of FMDV using real time RT-PCR because in these samples neutralising antibodies, that could influence the virus isolation results, were expected to be present. RNA isolation was performed using the Magna Pure LC total Nucleid Acid Isolation kit (03 038 505) in the MagNa Pure 96 system (Roche®, Mannheim, Germany). Isolated RNA was tested as described previously [19 (link)] using a LightCycler 480 Real-Time PCR System (Roche®) with the exception that we used a Quantifast Probe RT-PCR Kit (Qiagen®, Venlo, The Netherlands).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
