【PRINCIPLE】
POCTVET Giardia 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 Giardia 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 Giardia antigen in the sample.
【Directions For Use】
-Collect feces or vomit with the swab stick from dog’s or cat’s cloaca or on the ground.
-Insert the wet swab into the provided assay buffer tube. Agitate it to assure good sample extraction.
-Take out the cassette from the foil pouch and place it horizontally.
-Gradually drip 2-3 drops of sample extraction into the sample hole .
-Interpret the result in 5-10 minutes. Result after 10 minutes is considered as invalid.
【Result】
Positive: The presence of both C band and T band, no matter T band is clear or vague.
Negative: Only clear C band appears.
Invalid: No colored band appears in C zone, no matter whether T band appears.
