Bluetongue virus 8 RT-PCR Detection Kit
Bluetongue disease is caused by the bluetongue virus, an orbivirus of the Reoviridae family, 24 serotypes have been reported. The virus is transmitted to ruminants via certain species of biting midges (Culicoides spp.) and vector control is an important managementmeasure to prevent the spread of this virus. The major symptoms of infection are high fever, excessive salivation, swelling of the faceand tongue, and cyanosis of the tongue. Nasal symptoms are common, including nasal discharge and stertorous respiration.
