The Sabervet Porcine Circovirus Antibody Rapid Test is a lateral flow immunoassay intended for the qualitative detection of specific antibody from Porcine Circovirus (PCV) in porcine serum, plasma. Description Porcine Circovirus (PCV) is a common pathogen in pigs, mainly divided into Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) and Porcine circovirus type 3 (PCV3), among which PCV2 is the main cause of porcine circovirus-associated disease (PCVAD). Clinical signs and symptoms PCV2 Post-weaning Multiple System Failure Syndrome (PMWS) : Growth retardation: Infected pigs grow slowly and do not gain weight. Emaciation and anemia: Significant weight loss, pale skin. Dyspnea: Common respiratory symptoms, such as coughing and shortness of breath. Diarrhea: Sometimes accompanied by diarrhea, resulting in dehydration and weakness. Swollen lymph nodes: Swollen and necrotic lymph nodes are common. Dermatitis and Nephrotic Syndrome (PDNS) : Skin lesions: erythema, purple spots or necrotic lesions on the skin. Kidney disease: Kidney enlargement, may lead to uremia. Reproductive disorders: Miscarriage and stillbirth: Miscarriage, stillbirth, or mummified birth may occur in sows. Low piglet survival rate: The survival rate of newborn piglets decreased. Transmission route Direct contact: From pig to pig: Spread through direct contact with the bodily fluids (saliva, urine, feces, etc.) of infected pigs. Vertical propagation: Sow to piglet: Vertical transmission across the placenta, resulting in sow to fetus or newborn piglet.
