Canine Parvovirus CPV Redtest diagnostic test

Canine parvovirus diagnostic tests

The rapid immunochromatographic test is designed to detect parvovirus antigens in dog's stool or vomit. The disease comes in two forms: enteric (parvoviral gastroenteritis) and cardiac (parvoviral myocarditis).

Symptoms: lethargy, vomiting followed by diarrhoea.

The body becomes dehydrated very quickly. The mortality rate for the enteric form is quite high, up to 50%. The cardiac form is characterized by sudden death.

Carrying out the test:

Material for the test: faeces or vomit

1. Remove the cassette from its packaging and place it on a flat surface
2. A stool or vomit sample taken with a swab should be placed in a buffer container and mixed well.
ATTENTION! THE AMOUNT OF MATERIAL IN THE BUFFER CONTAINER MUST NOT BE TOO LARGE - THE SOLUTION WILL BE TOO THICK AND THE TEST WILL BE INVALID.

3. Place three drops of the sample in the A window using the pipette provided.
4. Wait 10 minutes. Read the results.
ATTENTION! Readings taken too early or too late may be distorted.

Interpretation of the results:
Positive result: two strips appear - control strip and test strip
Negative result: only the control strip appears
Incorrect result: no strip appears - test invalid
