A challenge for those of you with a molecular bent - Moderator.
Dear All,
As far as I know there is no multiplex Real-time RT-qPCR which detects PPR and PPR-like diseases (as individual agent or co-infections) in a single tube.
Therefore I think further scientific researches must include a multiplex real time (RT)-qPCR which can detect PPR, BT, BDV, pox,contagious ecthyma and FMD viruses (and Beta-Actin internal control to check extraction and also PCR mix) in a single tube (or double).
In current technology because generally Real-time PCR machines let us detect 5 different dyes, it is theoretically possible to detect 4 diseases and 1 internal control RNA/DNA in a single tube. However I am not sure it will be ever possible to do this in a single tube because of cross reactions.
With my Best Wishes
