Article Synopsis
- Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) and Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) are major health issues for pigs in Sichuan Province, leading to serious consequences for the swine industry, with high rates of infection and mortality in piglets.
- A study analyzing 352 diarrheal piglet samples found a significant prevalence of both viruses, with PCV2 positive in 42.33% and PEDV in 50.28% of samples, while co-infections occurred in 27.56% of cases.
- Seasonal trends showed PEDV infections peaked in winter, and genetic analysis revealed multiple strains of both viruses, indicating a need for improved surveillance and vaccine development to address the high mutation rates
Japanese encephalitis (JE), a mosquito-borne zoonotic disease caused by the Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), poses a serious threat to global public health. The low viremia levels typical in JEV infections make RNA detection challenging, necessitating early and rapid diagnostic methods for effective control and prevention. This study introduces a novel one-pot detection method that combines recombinant enzyme polymerase isothermal amplification (RPA) with CRISPR/EsCas13d targeting, providing visual fluorescence and lateral flow assay (LFA) results.

Its prevalence in China poses risks to both animal health and public well-being. Currently, there is a scarcity of seroepidemiological data on GETV due to the absence of commercial antibody detection kits for pigs.
