To establish an accurate and rapid detection method for swine Eperythrozoonosis, specific primers and probes were designed based on the conserved sequence of the α-enolase gene in Eperythrozoon suis. After screening and optimizing reaction conditions, a recombinase-aided amplification (RAA) fluorescence assay was successfully developed. The results demonstrated that this newly established method can specifically detect Eperythrozoon suis within 20 minutes at a constant temperature of 39°C. Importantly, the assay showed no cross-reactivity with Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae, Streptococcus suis, Escherichia coli, Classical Swine Fever virus, Porcine Circovirus type 2, African Swine Fever virus, or healthy pig blood samples. Additionally, the method achieved a detection limit as low as 1 copy/μL. When applied to 15 clinical samples, the RAA fluorescence assay yielded a positive rate of 60%, which closely matched the results obtained by the conventional fluorescent quantitative PCR method. Overall, the RAA fluorescence assay developed in this study exhibits excellent sensitivity and specificity, making it a simple and practical tool for the rapid clinical diagnosis of swine Eperythrozoonosis.
