Advances in the application of serological testing and PCR technology in the prevention and control of common diseases in pigs
Serological testing and PCR technology are commonly employed methods for preventing and controlling prevalent swine dis-eases.Serological testing determines the immunisation effectiveness and disease outbreak by detecting antibody levels in animals.In contrast,PCR technology directly detects the presence of pathogens by identifying their nucleic acids.This paper provides an overview of the advancements in utilizing these two techniques for preventing and managing frequent pig ailments.
