Abstract

The aim of this study is to establish a PCR method for detection of Babesia canis, which contains amplified internal standard, to improve the accuracy of detection. According to Babesia canis , the 18S rRNA gene of Babesia canis design primers for PCR detection of Babesia canis, using the gene fragment of chicken plasmid constructed and amplified internal standard method using a composite primer containing the recombinant. The amplified internal standard was added into the PCR detection system of Babesia canis to establish a PCR method for detection of Babesia canis. The results showed that the detection sensitivity of PCR was 105 copies/25 L in 25 L reaction system by adding 106 copies internal standard. In this study, a PCR assay with amplified internal standard was developed for rapid, accurate and simple detection of Babesia canis infection, and it could effectively avoid false negative phenomena.
