Abstract: This paper developed a new method in rapid detection of canine distemper virus(CDV) based on loop-mediated isothermal amplification(LAMP)assay which overcame the difficulties found in other measures,such as efficiency and high cost. In order to improve the specificity and sensitivity, we designed 6 primers recognizing the 8 conservative sequences on N gene of CDV. The result could be easily confirmed by agarose gel electrophoresis, color reaction or turbidity comparison. In conclusion, The newly developed RT-LAMP detection method for CDV was more specific, sensitive, simple and rapid than the others, even more the proceeding reaction was visible by the naked eye, and that was also to say, it offered a simple solution in field veterinary diagnose for CDV control.

Key words: canine distemper virus(CDV); loop-mediated isothermal amplification(LAMP); N gene
