INTENDED USE

Tritrichomonas foetus is a type of protozoa, which is easy to infect young cats and cause diarrhea and bloody stool. Some healthy adult cats infected with Trichomonas foetus will not have obvious external symptoms, while young cats or cats with low immunity will have obvious symptoms.

The Feline Tritrichomonas Foetus Antigen Rapid Test is a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of Tritrichomonas foetus antigen (TRF Ag) in cat’s feces specimen.

Assay Time: 5-10 minutes

Specimen: feces

PRINCIPLE

The Feline Tritrichomonas Foetus Antigen Rapid 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 Tritrichomonas foetus antigen (TRF Ag) 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 Tritrichomonas foetus antigen in the specimen.

REAGENTS AND MATERIALS
10 test pouches, with cards and disposable droppers
10 vials of assay buffer
10 bags of swab stick
1 package insert
STORAGE AND STABILITY

The kit can be stored at room temperature (4-30°C). The test kit is stable through the expiration date (24 months) marked on the package label. DO NOT FREEZE. Do not store the test kit in direct sunlight.

TEST PROCEDURE
Collect cat’s fresh feces with the swab from cat’s anus or from the ground.
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 4drops into the sample hole “S” of the test device.

Note: If the liquid will not flow through the surface of the test strip in 30 seconds, please add another drop of the treated sample extraction.
