QuickVet Ehrlichia/CHW/Babesia/Anaplasma Combo Test Kit

INTENDED USE

QuickVet Ehrlichia/CHW/Babesia/Anaplasma Combo Test is a qualitative Immuno chromatographic assay for rapid detection of Ehrlichia, CHW, Babesia and Anaplasma infection in canine whole blood, plasma or serum. quickVet Ehrlichia/CHW/Babesia/Anaplasma Combo Test is only intended for initial screening and reactive samples should be confirmed by a supplemental assay such as ELISA.

TEST DESCRIPTION

Canine vector borne diseases are caused by a range of pathogens transmitted to dogs by blood-feeding arthropods like ticks, fleas, mosquitoes and sand flies. The commonly diagnosed vector borne diseases are Ehrlichiosis, Anaplasmosis, babesiosis and diroflariosis. The diseases are characterized by a complex pathogenesis with a potentially fatal clinical course for the majority of cases with new pathogenic findings being unrecovered every year. In addition, several have a zoonotic potential with possible transmission to the human population.

 TEST PRINCIPLE

QuickVet Ehrlichia/CHW/Babesia/Anaplasma Test works on the principle of immunochromatographic assay. Basic components of test strip include: a) Conjugate pad, which contains colloidal gold conjugated detection molecule; b) a nitrocellulose membrane strip containing two lines T: Capture molecule and C: Control reagent.
