Abstract
A real-time assay coupled with a non-invasive tissue sampling was developed for the detection and quantification of fish viruses. As a proof of principles, data were presented for the detection and quantification of infectious hypodermal necrosis virus (IHNV) in trout. The primers were designed for IHNV nucleocapsid (N), and surface glycoprotein (G) genes, and trout &bgr;-actin and elongation factor-l&agr; (EF-I &agr;) were used as internal control for the assay. The reaction conditions for the real-time RT-PCR were optimized using cDNA derived from IHNV-infected Epithelioma papulosum cyprinid (EPC) cells. Using both N- and G-gene primers, IHNV was successfully detected in liver, kidney, spleen, adipose tissue and pectoral fin samples of laboratory-challenged and wild samples. The dissociation curves with a single melting peak at expected temperature (85° C. for the N-gene and 86.5° C. for the G-gene) confirmed the specificity of the N- and G-gene amplicons. The IHNV N- and the G-gene expression levels in different tissues of laboratory challenged samples were in the order of spleen, liver, kidney, adipose tissue and pectoral fin, however in the field-collected samples the order of gene expression was liver, kidney, pectoral fin, adipose tissue, and spleen. The N- and G-gene expressions in spleen were found to be dramatically lower in the field-collected samples compared to the laboratory-challenged samples indicating a potential difference in the IHNV replication in the laboratory as opposed to field conditions. The real-time PCR assay was found to be rapid, highly sensitive, and reproducible. Based upon the ability to detect the virus in pectoral fins a non-invasive detection method for IHNV and other fish viruses is developed. Such a non-invasive tissue sampling coupled with real-time PCR assay is very valuable for large-scale virus screening of fish in aquaculture facilities as well as for epidemiological studies.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
