Abstract:
Objective To establish a method for the rapid detection of hepatitis E virus (HEV)from serum samples based on fluorescence quantitative PCR.Methods (1 )One-hundred HEV sequences including our country popular three major genotypes were obtained from the GeneBank with the Vector NTI software.The proper sequence was selected to design and synthesize the primers of the fluorescence quantitation and the Taqman probe.(2)The amplification region PCR fragment was transcribed in vitro to synthesize cRNA standard,at the same time the trace serum virus lysate was introduced into a universal real-time TaqMan PCR assay.(3)10 clinical serum samples were collected from the patients with clinical hepatitis E and detected by using the established method for further verifying this method.Results This detection technique could effectively detect the serum samples in the pa-tients with genotype I and genotype IV hepatitis E positive,while the serum detection in the patients with other virus infectious dis-eases had the negative results,which verified that this RT-PCR detection technique had higher specificity and good reliability.The detection results from 10 clinical serum samples further verified that this method was rapid,convenient and sensitive with good re-peatability.Conclusion A fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR detection technique suitable for detecting main genotypes of HEV in China population is established,which can meet the demand of early and rapid diagnosis for HEV.
