This kit simplifies isolation of DNA from shrimp tissue samples with spin‐column based procedure. Shrimp tissue (spliced and digested) is subjected to lysis by Proteinase K in a chaotropic salt solution. Following lysis, is the binding of DNA to the silica membrane of the HiEluteMiniprep Spin Column to yield purified DNA. Rapid wash steps remove trace salt and protein contaminants resulting in the elution of high quality DNA in the Elution Buffer (ET) provided with the kit. The WSSV PCR Kit is a qualitative conventional PCR kit which includes the amplification of specific
gene regions of 146 F2/146 R2 (amplicon size: 941 bp), an insertion element found exclusively within
the members of the Shrimp samples using specific primer. The amplified target is confirmed by using
agarose gel electrophoresis. This kit contains an Internal and Positive control.

The disease is highly lethal and contagious, killing shrimp quickly. Outbreaks of this disease have wiped out the entire populations of many shrimp farms within a few days, in places throughout the world. WSSV is a rod shaped double stranded DNA virus. Molecular methods like PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) for pathogen detection have been developed for shrimp diseases.
