近年來蝦養殖產業在臺灣、泰國,甚至其他東南亞國家遭受嚴重的微孢子蟲感染 ,這種疾病容易感染且會使得草蝦和白蝦生長緩慢,因此對養蝦產業帶來直接或間 接的經濟衝擊。研究的29尾蝦檢體分別從宜蘭、臺南和高雄採樣。運用重組酶聚合 酶擴增法檢測微孢子蟲比起其他分子檢測方法(例如:聚合酶鏈鎖反應、即時聚合酶 鏈鎖反應、組織學檢測)來得靈敏、專一性佳且快速。本研究目的是建立一套具有高 靈敏度且高專一性的快速檢測方法,不僅可以提供更精確的微孢子蟲疾病篩檢,更 可運用於現場養殖檢測。

研究報告摘要(英)


Recently, The shrimp cultured in these farms such as Taiwan, Tailand and other Southeast Asia were severely infected with Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP), which is a microsporidian parasite that infects the hepatopancreas of slow-growing Penaeus monodon and Penaeus vannamei, becoming more and more common and the economic losses are now considered to critically affect the shrimp aquaculture directly or indirectly. Farm samples in the experiment used of shrimps in a total of 29 individuals collected from farms at Yilan, Tainan, and Kaohsiung city in Taiwan. The detection of EHP by recombinase polymerase amplification is recognized the better standard for detecting in shrimp pathogens due to their sensitivity, specificity, and rapidity than other methods for the detection of EHP be carried out by molecular assay (PCR, qPCR, histology). The aim of this study was to establish a rapid detection method with high sensitivity and high specificity not only can help to detect EHP more accurately but also can be used for detection in farm samples.
