| Abstract | Japanese encephalitis (JE) can infect many agriculturally important animals and humans, and has a high incidence in Asia. One of the natural hosts of the mosquito-borne JE virus (JEV) is domestic pigs, which act as amplifier hosts. Porcine infection results in fatal encephalitis, abortion, and stillbirth in pregnant sows, and hypospermia in boars. In this study, a rapid JEV detection method for swine and mosquitoes was developed based on reverse transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification (RT-LAMP) targeting the nucleocapsid (E) genes of JEV genotype I (lineage K94PO5), and genotype III (lineage SA14-14-2). Fifty-six swine blood samples and 20,000 mosquitoes were used to evaluate the method, compared to conventional RT-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and real-time RT-PCR. RT-LAMP had detection limits of 2.57 and 2.34 copies/µL for JEV I and III, respectively. Assay sensitivity was similar to real-time RT-PCR, but was 10-fold higher than conventional RT-PCR. Assay specificity was high, showing no cross-reactivity to other flaviviruses. The results of virus isolation and identification of swine blood samples and mosquito samples were fully consistent with RT-LAMP. Finally, the JEV RT-LAMP assay was simpler and less time consuming than conventional RT-PCR or real-time RT-PCR, since the amplification step could be completed in a single tube within 50 min at 63°C. In conclusion, the newly-developed RT-LAMP assay is an accurate and convenient method for rapid and sensitive diagnosis of JEV in swine and mosquitoes, and may prove to be a practical molecular tool for surveillance and epidemiological investigations. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
