The Molecular Antigen PCR-Identification Test (MAP-IT) is a combination of gel-based PCR and real time PCR assays for detecting viral agents that are currently tested by the in vivo assay. Instead of injecting test materials into the animals and waiting for the immune response from the mice, the molecular based assay directly detects the presence of any viral nucleic acid in the samples. The detection of any viral nucleic acid indicates that there may be viral contamination present.

Historically, isolation has been the standard for
identification of animal viral pathogens.

The Laboratory Animal Diagnostic Services (LADS) division
at BioReliance has extensive experience with performing isolations for
a variety of rodent and simian viruses. Isolations for Simian Retrovirus
(SRV) are performed on a routine basis. Additionally, isolations are available
for most viral agents listed in our catalog. Please contact us prior to
sample submission.
