Canine Parvovirus(CPV) Ag/Ab Rapid Test Cassette

Canine parvovirus (CPV, colloquially parvo) is a contagious virus mainly affecting dogs. CPV2 is highly contagious and is spread from dog to dog by direct or indirect contact with their feces. Vaccines can prevent this infection, but mortality can reach 91% in untreated cases. Treatment often involves veterinary hospitalization. Canine parvovirus may infect other mammals including foxes,wolves, cats, and skunks.

For Cassette

1.Review “Specimen collection” instructions. Test device, patient’s samples, and controls should be brought to room temperature (20-30℃) prior to testing. Do not open pouches until ready to perform the assay.

2.Remove the test device from its protective pouch (bring the device to room temperature before opening the pouch to avoid condensation of moisture on the membrane). Label the device with patient or control number.

3.Hold the dropper vertically and transfer 3 full drops of urine (approx. 0.15ml) to the specimen well (S) of the test device, and then start the timer. Use a separate pipette and device for each sample or control.

4.Read result between 3 to 8 minutes after the addition of samples. Do not read result after 8 minutes.
