Protect Your Shrimp Health with Comprehensive Virus Detection
When you’re concerned about your shrimp’s health and suspect viral infections, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our Shrimp Virus Multiplex Detection Test provides the definitive answers you need to protect your aquatic investment and ensure optimal health outcomes. This advanced testing solution offers comprehensive screening for multiple critical shrimp viruses in a single, efficient test.
Understanding Your Shrimp Virus Detection Test
This sophisticated qualitative test uses Real Time PCR technology to simultaneously detect and differentiate between four major shrimp viruses that can significantly impact shrimp health and aquaculture operations. The test specifically identifies:
- White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV) – One of the most devastating viral pathogens affecting shrimp worldwide
- Monodon Baculovirus (MBV) – Affecting the digestive system and overall growth
- Hepatopancreatic Parvovirus (HPV) – Targeting the hepatopancreas, crucial for digestion and metabolism
- Infectious Hypodermal and Haematopoietic Necrosis Virus (IHHNV) – Impacting growth and causing deformities
Using RNA detection methodology, this test provides highly specific and sensitive results you can trust for making critical health decisions.
When Should You Consider This Test?
This comprehensive virus detection test is essential when you observe:
- Unexplained mortality rates in your shrimp population
- Abnormal swimming behavior or lethargy
- White spots on the carapace or other physical abnormalities
- Reduced feeding activity and growth rates
- Changes in coloration or shell quality
- Previous outbreaks in your facility or surrounding areas
- Introduction of new shrimp stock to your operation
Early detection is crucial for implementing effective management strategies and preventing widespread outbreaks.
