Feline infectious peritonitis virus
Description
The FIPV dtec-RT-qPCR comprises a series of specific targeted reagents designed for Feline infectious peritonitis virus detection by using qPCR. Feline infectious peritonitis virus is a positive-stranded RNA coronavirus that is infectious to cats worldwide. It is responsible of the feline infectious peritonitis, an uncommon, but usually fatal, aberrant immune response. The virus replicates in the gut, but spreads systemically in the circulation and has the ability to replicate in monocytes and macrophages causing two main forms effusive (wet) and non-effusive (dry). The disease signs include, chronic weight loss, anorexia, pyrexia, depression, fever and vasculitis. Fluid in the abdomen, thorax or pericardium are symptomatic of wet form. Granulomatous change in the organs are symptomatic of dry form.
