A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Porcine endogenous retrovirus A

Porcine Endogenous Retrovirus A (PERV-A) is a retrovirus found in pigs that has the potential to transmit to humans during organ xenotransplantation. Symptoms of infection can range from flu-like symptoms to more serious health complications. Detection of PERV-A is crucial in the veterinary and biopharma sectors to prevent zoonotic transmission and ensure the safety of organ transplant recipients.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect PERV-A allows for quick and accurate monitoring of retroviral contamination in pig populations and organ donors. Early detection of PERV-A can prevent potential health risks associated with xenotransplantation and ensure the safety of transplant recipients, highlighting the importance of sensitive and specific detection methods in the field.
