A complete qPCR kit for the detection of Koi Herpesvirus

Koi herpesvirus, also known as Cyprinid herpesvirus 3, is a highly contagious pathogen that affects koi and common carp, causing symptoms such as lethargy, skin lesions, and high mortality rates in affected populations. This virus is of significant importance in the aquaculture industry, as it can lead to devastating economic losses for fish farmers if not detected early.

YouSeq's qPCR kit to detect Koi herpesvirus allows for sensitive and specific detection of the virus in fish populations, enabling early intervention to prevent outbreaks and minimize economic losses for aquaculture businesses. Timely detection of this target is crucial in preventing the spread of the virus and maintaining the health and sustainability of koi and carp populations in aquaculture settings.
