Product Parameters

INTENDED USE

Canine Parvovirus Ag Test is a sandwich lateral flow immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of canine Parvovirus (CPV Ag) in dog’s feces.

PRINCIPLE

Canine Parvovirus Virus Ag Test is based on sandwich lateral flow immunochromatographic assay. The test device has a testing window. The testing window has an invisible T (test) zone and C (control) zone. When sample is applied into the sample hole on the device, the liquid will laterally flow on the surface of the test strip. If there is enough Parvovirus antigen in the sample, a visible T band will appear. The C band should always appear after a sample is applied, indicating a valid result. By this means, the device can accurately indicate the presence of Canine Parvovirus antigen in the sample.

2. Insert the wet swab into the provided assay buffer tubes.  Agitate it at least 10 times to get efficient sample extraction. If the fecal particles are large, let it stand for 1-2 minutes to precipitate.

3. Take out the test device from the foil pouch and place it horizontally.

4. Gradually drip 5 drops of sample extraction into the sample hole with disposable droppers.

5. Interpret the result in 10-15 minutes. Result after 15 minutes is considered as invalid.

INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS

Positive: Two lines appear, no matter T line is clear or vague.

Negative: Only C line appears.

Invalid: No line appears or only T line appears.

PRECAUTIONS

1. The test must be used within 1 hour after opening the foil pouch.

2. Adding too much feces samples will cause false positive and overdosing assay buffer can also lead to incorrect results.
