The ALV-B dtec-RT-qPCR comprises a series of specific targeted reagents designed for Avian leukosis virus subgroup B detection by using qPCR. Avian leukosis virus belongs to a family of viruses called retroviruses, single-stranded RNA enveloped viruses. Infection in chickens is known to induce increased mortality, tumours, delayed growth, and suboptimal egg production. Avian leukosis virus have been divided into 10 envelope subgroups, A through J, based on host range, receptor interference patterns, and neutralization by antibodies. The subgroup B is included in the cytopathic group which can cause transient cytotoxicity in 30-40 % of the infected cells.
