Establishment of Real-Time Fluorescent PCR Method for Detection of D Epizootic Hemorrhagic Disease of Deer

Epizootie hemorrhagic disease of deer virus (EHDV), is a member of the family Reoviridae virus (Orbi virus), and a double-stranded RNA virus from arthropods (mainly Culicoides), which is very similar in morphology and structure to Blue tongue virus (BTV). Serologically, there is a clear cross between the blue tongue virus and EHDV. EHD (caused by EHDV) is a seasonal, non-contact viral infectious disease. Under natural conditions, EHDV can cause infection of cattle, sheep and other domestic animals as well as many domesticated and wild ruminants such as white tail deer, Mi, large horned antelope and so on. The virus has been isolated from white-tailed deer, black-tailed deer, sheep, goats, cattle, bison and Culicoides. White tail deer infection is the most serious, and clinical characteristics are transient elevated body temperature, symptoms of shock, mucosal, serous bleeding and death in a coma [1]. At present, there is no effective vaccine and treatment for this disease. To control and eliminate EHD, it is necessary to spend a lot of manpower and material resources. Export trade is restricted, which brings great economic losses to the countries with EHD epidemic. Moreover, because of the complexity of antigen structure and the diversity of clinical symptoms of EHDV, it is difficult to diagnose in laboratory. Therefore, developing a quick and precise laboratory diagnostic method becomes more and more significant among researchers.

By consulting the data and nucleic acid sequence of GenBank, the specific primers and probes were designed and synthesized for the gene sequence of EHDV: Forward primer 5'-GCGTTGGATATATTGGACAAAGC-3'; Reverse primer 5'-GCATACGAAGCATAAGCAACCTT-3'.

Sample Collection and Processing
Pretreatment of blood samples: take 2 mL of whole blood sample, 3000 g centrifugation for 10 min at 4˚C, abandon precipitation, collect supernatant and extract nucleic acid.
Pretreatment of tissue samples: take 100 mg tissue sample and cut into pieces, add 0.01 mol/L Ph 7.6PBS by 1:5, repeat freezing and thawing for three times after grinding, centrifuge for 10 min at 4˚C 3000 g and take the supernatant, preserve at the temperature of −20˚C, save for later or proceed to extract nucleic acid directly.

RNA Extraction
Methods: Take 100 mg tissue samples and cut into pieces, add 0.01 mol/L Ph 7.6PBS by 1:5, repeat freezing and thawing for three times after grinding, centrifugateat 4˚C 12,000 r/5 min and take the supernatant, preserve at −20˚C, save for later use and proceed to extract nucleic acid directly; Soak all RNA extraction vessels in DEPC water for 24 h and sterilize before use.In the process of extracting RNA, both methods of DNA chloroform extraction and commercialized genomic DNA extraction kit are adopted to full genetic DNA of the virus, and no distinction is proved to be found.

Building of Fluorescent Quantitative PCR Method
In order to obtain minimum Ct value, the typical fluorescence amplification curve and high fluorescence intensity primers and probe optimum concentration, and according to Table 1 and Table 2, we determine the extraction virus and select four groups of concentration as follows: 40 ng/mL, 60 ng/mL, 80 ng/mL and 100 ng/mL.As shown in Figure 1, select 80 ng/mL as the nucleic acid concentration.

Specificity Test
Fluorescence quantitative PCR method is applied in detecting Epizootic Table 1.Reverse transcription reaction system (General system 20 μL).hemorrhagic disease of deer virus, bluetongue virus, deer epidemic hemorrhagic disease virus, mycobacterium tuberculosis, bovine mucous diarrheas disease virus and foot and mouth disease virus, with DdH2O as a negative contrast to detect the specificity of primers and probes (see Figure 2).

Clinical Sample Detection
Take 80 test samples and compare test results to known results, and the coincidence rate turns out to be 100%.

Conclusion
In this paper, TaqMan method was used to compare the nucleotide sequence of applied in many other fields [3].

Add 1 mL
Trizollysate to the sample before completing the before-mentioned procedure and place aside for 5 min at room temperature.Add 0.2 mL of trichloromethane, ocilliate violently for 15 s, and place aside for 3 min at room temperature, centrifuge at 4˚C 12,000 r/15 min.Take Eppendorf tube out, gently remove supernate and place upsidedown on absorbent paper, with different samples soaked with different parts on the paper; Add 20 μL sterilization DEPC water to each tube, mix gently till RNA on the tube wall begin to dissolve , centrifuge at 2000 r/min for 5 s and save on ice for later use.The extracted RNA should be amplified by RT-PCR within 2 h or placed in refrigerator at −70˚C for later use.
