Avian Infuenza termasuk ke dalam kelompok penyakit menular strategis dan bersifat zoonosis. Penyebabnya adalah virus Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) subtipe H5N1. Introduksi virus Avian Infuenza subtipe H5N1 dapat melalui jalur pasar karena berpotensi dalam penyebarannya penyakit Avian Influenza pada ayam kampung secara alamiah melalui kontak langsung dengan unggas lain. Penelitian ini dilakukan di Pasar Hewan Beringkit, Kabupaten Badung dan Pasar Umum Galiran, Kabupaten Klungkung. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui keberadaan virus Avian Influenza subtipe H5N1 pada ayam kampung di Pasar Hewan Beringkit dan Pasar Umum Galiran. Sampel yang digunakan sebanyak 120 sampel swab kloaka dan swab trakea ayam kampung, dengan jumlah masing-masing pasar sebanyak 60 sampel. Periode pengambilan sampel dilakukan selama dua bulan dengan periode pengambilan setiap dua minggu sekali sebanyak empat kali. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan pada ayam kampung berumur di atas tiga bulan yang tidak divaksinasi. Isolasi virus pada telur ayam berembrio (TAB) berumur sembilan hari dan identifikasinya dengan uji hemaglutinasi (HA), uji hambatan hemaglutinasi (HI) serta Real Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR). Analisis data hasil uji antigen Avian Influenza dengan uji statistika non-parametrik Chi-square (?2). Hasil uji sampel swab kloaka dan trakea ayam kampung asal Pasar Beringkit positif virus Avian Influenza sebesar 5%, sedangkan sampel positif virus Avian Influenza asal Pasar Galiran sebesar 6,7%. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa virus Avian Influenza terdeteksi pada ayam kampung di Pasar Hewan Beringkit dan Pasar Umum Galiran, virus AI masih bersikulasi pada daerah asal peternakan dan penyakit AI masih mewabah di Bali.

Rapid and differential diagnosis of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) subtype H5 is essential for the effective prevention and control of outbreaks caused by this pathogen. In this study, we describe a one-step multiplex real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (mRRT-PCR), using H5-, N1-, and N8-specific primers and probes, for differential detection of two HPAIVs (H5N1 and H5N8) and other H5-subtype AIVs. Using the mRRT-PCR assay, we were able to detect H5N1, H5N8, and other H5-subtype AIVs in a one-tube reaction, with high specificity; furthermore, using an in silico PCR program, we confirmed that this assay can detect nearly all H5, N1, and N8 genes of AIVs currently available in the Influenza Sequence Database. The limit of detection of the assay was determined to be as low as 100 copies/reaction for each target gene, and was comparable to limits of detection of previously reported mRRT-PCR assays. Thus, the mRRT-PCR assay described here can serve as a rapid and reliable differential diagnostic tool for the monitoring and surveillance of H5N1, H5N8, and other H5-subtype AIVs in countries where these pathogens are problematic.

As concerns over the global spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza H5N1 have heightened, more countries are faced with increased surveillance efforts and incident response planning for handling a potential outbreak. The incorporation of molecular techniques in most diagnostic laboratories has enabled fast and efficient testing of many agents of concern, including avian influenza. However, the need for high-throughput testing remains. In this study, the use of a 384–well format for high-throughput real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (real-time RT-PCR) testing for avian influenza is described. The analytical sensitivity of a real-time RT-PCR assay for avian influenza virus matrix gene with the use of both 96– and 384–well assay formats and serial dilutions of transcribed control RNA were comparable, resulting in similar limits of detection. Of 28 hunter-collected cloacal swabs that were positive by virus isolation, 26 (92.9%) and 27 (96.4%) were positive in the 96– and 384–well assays, respectively; of the 340 hunter-collected swabs that were negative by virus isolation, 45 (13.2%) and 23 (6.8%) were positive in the 96– and 384–well assays, respectively. The data presented herein supports the utility of the 384–well format in the event of an avian influenza outbreak for high-throughput real-time RT-PCR testing.

Toxigenic Clostridium difficile infection, causing a Pseudo Membrane Colitis (PMC) and Clostridium Difficile Associated Diarrhea(CDAD) has increased sharply. The largest risk factor is the use of antibiotics. The purpose of this study was to know how to determinethe prevalence and characteristics of subjects with Toxigenic Clostridium difficile and to assess the ability of the toxin rapid test comparedto real-time PCR. Ninety adult subjects with antibiotic therapy more than two (2) weeks were enrolled in this study. The results of toxinrapid test and real-time PCR were presented in a 2x2 table, statistical test used was Chi square. The prevalence of Toxigenic Clostridiumdifficile based on the toxin rapid test and by real-time PCR was 27.3% and 37.5%, respectively. There were significant differences betweenstool consistency and number of antibiotics used with the detection of Toxigenic Clostridium difficile. There was a relationship betweenthe duration of antibiotic therapy with the detection of Toxigenic Clostridium difficile using real-time PCR (p=0.010, RR=2.116). Thesensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, PLR and NLR rapid test against real-time PCR were 69.7%; 98.2%; 95.8%; 84.4%; 39.2 and 0.31,respectively. This study concluded that the prevalence of Clostridium difficile in RSCM was higher compared to that in Malaysia, Thailandand India; the subjects with antibiotic therapy for more than four (4) weeks had a double risk to have Toxigenic Clostridium difficilethan subjects with antibiotic therapy for less than that time (4 weeks). Thus, in this study, toxin rapid test could be used as a tool todetect Toxigenic Clostridium difficile.

Introduction: The whole world is facing an ongoing global health emergency of COVID-19 disease caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). Real-Time Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) is a gold standard in the detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Presently, many single tube multiple gene target RT-PCR kits have been developed and are commercially available for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) diagnosis. Aim: To evaluate the performance of seven COVID-19 RT-PCR kits (DiagSure, Meril, VIRALDTECT II, TruPCR, Q-line, Allplex and TaqPath) which are commercially available for COVID-19 RT-PCR diagnosis. Materials and Methods: This observational study was conductedat the State Virology Laboratory (SVL), Gandhi Medical College, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India. Seven commercially available kits have been evaluated on the basis of: (i) number of SARS-CoV-2 specific gene target; (ii) human housekeeping genes as internal control; (iii) RT-PCR run time; and (iv) kit performances to correctly detect SARS-CoV-2 positive and negative RNA samples. A total of 50 RNA samples (left over RNA) were included, master mix preparation, template addition and RT-PCR test has been performed according to kits literature. At the end of PCR run, mean and standard deviation of obtained cut-off of all kits were calculated using Microsoft Excel. Results: All seven RT-PCR kits performed satisfactory regarding the reproducibility and they could correctly identify 30 positive and 20 negative RNA samples. RNA samples (group C) having low viral loads with a high Cycle threshold (Ct) value (>30) were also detected by all these seven kits. Obtained Ct values of each group was in parallel range in comparison with the initial testing Ct values. Kits were found to be superior which contains primers and probes for three SARS-CoV-2 specific gene targets, have human housekeeping gene as internal control and taking less time to complete RT-PCR. Conclusion: All seven COVID-19 RT-PCR kits included in this study demonstrated satisfactory performance and can be used for the routine molecular diagnosis of COVID-19 disease.
