Article Synopsis
  • * This study developed and validated two diagnostic methods for KHV detection: a cross-priming amplification-based lateral flow assay (CPA-LFA) and a TaqMan probe-based real-time PCR.
  • * The CPA-LFA showed a sensitivity of 93.67% and a specificity of 100%, while the real-time PCR had both sensitivity and specificity at 100%, making both tests effective, with CPA-LFA being easier for quick tests outside the lab.

However, shrimp productivity faces a variety of challenges, mainly related to outbreaks of lethal or growth retardation-related diseases. In particular, hepatopancreatic microsporidiosis caused by the microsporidian parasite (EHP) is an important disease associated with growth retardation in shrimp.
