Canine Influenza Virus Antigen Rapid Test

Product Description

Canine Influenza Virus Antigen  Rapid Diagnostic Kit
Short IntroductionCanine influenza virus (CIV) is a large infectious respiratory disease virus that can spread rapidly in dogs and can cause clinical signs of respiratory system such as cough, runny nose, sneezing, fever, dyspnea, etc. It can be secondary to the lung. Simple CIV infection does not cause much harm, but it is easy to accompany secondary infection. It will do great harm to animal health.

The Canivet CIV Ag Test is a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of canine Influenza virus antigen (CIV Ag) in secretions from dog's eyes, nasal cavities, or anus.

Principle
The Canivet CIV Ag Test is based on sandwich lateral flow immunochromatographic assay. The test device has a testing window for the observation of assay running and result reading. The testing window has an invisible T (test) zone and a C (control) zone before running the assay. When the treated sample was applied into the sample hole on the device, the liquid will laterally flow through the surface of the test strip and react with the pre-coated monoclonal antibodies. If there is CIV antigen in the specimen, a visible T line will appears. The C line should always appear after a sample is applied, which indicates a valid result. By this means, the device can accurately indicate the presence of Influenza virus antigen in the specimen.  

Test Procedure-Collect dog's ocular, nasal or anus secretions with the cotton swab and make the swab wet sufficiently.
-Insert the swab into the provided assay buffer tube. Agitates it to get efficient sample extraction.
-Take out the test device from the foil pouch and place it horizontally.
-Suck the treated sample extraction from the assay buffer tube and place 3 drops into the sample hole "S" of the test device.
-Interpret the result in 5-10 minutes. Result after 10 minutes is considered as invalid.
