Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV2) belongs to the family Circoviridae, genus Circovirus. Infection of swine caused by this virus is manifested in several different clinical forms, leading to significant economic losses in swine production worldwide. For this reason, prompt and precise diagnostics of this swine infection is of great importance. For this purpose today there are used molecular methods of virological diagnostics such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and real-time method PCR, that is direct sequencing method by Sanger
