Avian PCR Panel: Rapid, Comprehensive Molecular Detection for Poultry Diseases

Avian PCR Panel – Fast, Accurate Detection of Major Poultry Pathogens

The poultry industry relies on rapid and accurate disease diagnosis to maintain flock health, improve productivity, and minimize economic losses. Traditional diagnostic methods often require several days before actionable results are available, delaying treatment and biosecurity decisions.

Retro Biotech & Research Pvt. Ltd. introduces the ANIDX™ Avian PCR Panel (15-Plex)—a comprehensive real-time PCR solution designed for simultaneous detection of the most important viral and bacterial pathogens affecting commercial poultry.

Built on advanced multiplex qPCR technology with a lyophilized, ready-to-use format, the panel simplifies laboratory workflow while delivering high sensitivity, specificity, and rapid turnaround.

Why Molecular PCR Testing Matters in Poultry

Poultry diseases spread rapidly within commercial farms. Early molecular detection enables veterinarians and producers to:

  • Detect infections before clinical signs become severe
  • Differentiate pathogens with similar symptoms
  • Reduce unnecessary antibiotic use
  • Improve vaccination monitoring
  • Minimize mortality and production losses
  • Strengthen farm biosecurity
  • Support disease surveillance programs

Real-time PCR remains the gold standard for rapid pathogen detection because of its excellent analytical sensitivity and specificity.

ANIDX™ Avian PCR Panel (15-Plex)

Our multiplex panel simultaneously detects multiple respiratory, systemic, and enteric pathogens from a single testing workflow.

Tube 1 – Respiratory Viral Pathogens

  • Avian Influenza Virus (AIV)

  • Avian Metapneumovirus (aMPV)

Tube 2 – Respiratory Bacterial Pathogens

  • Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG)
  • Mycoplasma synoviae (MS)
  • Infectious Laryngotracheitis Virus (ILT / GaHV-1)
  • Avian Internal Control

Tube 3 – Immunosuppressive & Systemic Pathogens

  • Infectious Bursal Disease Virus (IBDV)
  • Fowl Adenovirus (FAdV / Inclusion Body Hepatitis)
  • Avian Leukosis Virus (ALV)
  • Avian Reovirus (ARV)

Tube 4 – Enteric & Bacterial Pathogens

  • Salmonella spp.
  • Escherichia coli O157
  • Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale (ORT)
  • Open Channel for future customization

The panel can be used with commonly collected poultry specimens, including:

  • Oropharyngeal swabs
  • Tracheal swabs
  • Cloacal swabs
  • Tissue samples
  • Organ homogenates
  • Environmental surveillance samples (after laboratory validation)

Applications

The ANIDX™ Avian PCR Panel is ideal for:

  • Poultry diagnostic laboratories
  • Commercial poultry farms
  • Hatcheries
  • Veterinary hospitals
  • Disease surveillance programs
  • Veterinary research institutions
  • Poultry integrators
  • Export health monitoring
