Abstract
A quantitative rapid detection method based on loop-mediated isothermal amplification has been developed for red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV). The nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay is the mainstream inspection of the brooder in the hatchery. In this study, a real-time loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) method has been applied for RGNNV detection, known as a high-speed gene amplification procedure. Of the three temperatures (60°C, 63°C and 65°C) attempted, it has been found that 63°C is giving higher amplification from 11th minute onwards. Sensitivity analysis performed in comparison with real-time polymerase chain reaction, reverse transcriptase PCR and nested RT-PCR using various concentrations of template revealed that real-time LAMP method is efficient in terms of cost and time consumption. Specificity analysis revealed that the method developed is specific to RGNNV, whereas it has sequence cross-match with tiger puffer NNV giving advantage in detecting both the viruses. This method could be much efficient in analysing RGNNV in combination with TPNNV.
