About Rabies (serology for export)
- What it is: a zoonotic viral disease; vaccine-preventable in pets.

Pseudorabies VirusgE , PRV gE Real-time PCR Kit is used to detect PRV gE gene sequence in swine serum, plasma, tissue, sperm and environmental samples.
Pseudorabies is a disease of swine that can also affect cattle, dogs, cats, sheep, and goats. Pseudorabies virus (PRV) is a contagious herpesvirus that causes reproductive problems, (abortion, stillbirths), respiratory problems and occasional deaths in breeding and finishing hogs.
