Yersinia ruckeri

Description

The Yersinia ruckeri real-time qPCR detection kit from Primerdesign provides fast, specific detection of Yersinia ruckeri, the bacterium responsible for enteric redmouth disease (ERM, yersiniosis), a recurrent cause of mortality in farmed rainbow trout and other salmonids. The TaqMan-based assay targets a conserved, species-specific region for confident detection directly from extracted nucleic acid, supporting early intervention and carrier screening.

Each kit supplies a ready-to-use primer and probe mix together with a positive control template, providing a complete workflow from extracted DNA on any standard real-time PCR platform. The Advanced format additionally includes an internal extraction control to flag inhibition and a copy-number standard curve for absolute quantification of pathogen load.

Key features of the Yersinia ruckeri kit

• Real-time qPCR (TaqMan) detection of Yersinia ruckeri
• Species-specific target with high analytical specificity
• Sensitive detection supporting early diagnosis and carrier screening
• Primer/probe mix and positive control template included
• Advanced format adds an internal extraction control and a quantification standard
• Compatible with standard real-time PCR instruments

It is ideally suited to salmonid aquaculture diagnostics, vaccination monitoring and biosecurity surveillance. Available in Standard (qualitative) and Advanced (quantitative) formats, with detailed set-up and result interpretation described in the included IFU/handbook.
