Product summary

Giardia Rapid Test for Veterinary Use by GoldHealth Medical

Giardia is a microscopic parasite responsible for giardiasis, a diarrheal disease that poses significant health risks to animals and humans alike. This parasite is commonly found in contaminated environments, including surfaces, soil, food, and water exposed to fecal matter from infected individuals or animals.

GoldHealth Medical presents a cutting-edge solution: a rapid Giardia antigen (Giardia Ag) test designed for veterinary professionals. Leveraging advanced sandwich lateral flow immunochromatographic technology, this test delivers accurate and reliable results within minutes. The device features a testing window with two zones: T (test) and C (control). When a sample is applied, the liquid flows across the test strip. A visible T band confirms the presence of Giardia Ag, while the C band ensures the test is functioning correctly.

Key Features and Benefits

  • High Sensitivity and Specificity: Detects Giardia Ag with precision, ensuring reliable diagnosis.
  • Ease of Use: Simple procedure with clear visual results, designed for efficiency in veterinary settings.
  • Broad Application: Suitable for canine, feline, and other animal species.
  • Rapid Results: Accurate detection in just 5-10 minutes, enabling timely treatment decisions.

Product Components

  • 10 × Foil pouches, each containing:
  • 1 cassette
  • 1 pipette
  • 1 desiccant
  • 10 × Assay buffer tubes (1.0 mL each)
  • 10 × Swabs
  • 1 × Product manual

Test Procedure

  1. Insert the wet swab into the provided assay buffer tube and agitate to extract the sample thoroughly.
  2. Allow the sample extraction to stand for 1 minute.
  3. Remove the cassette from the foil pouch and place it horizontally on a dry surface.
  4. Add 3 drops of sample extraction into the sample hole at a rate of one drop per second.
  5. If no migration is observed after 1 minute, add one additional drop of liquid into the sample hole.
  6. Interpret the result within 5-10 minutes. Results after 10 minutes are invalid.

Interpretation of Results

  • Positive: Both T and C bands appear, indicating the presence of Giardia Ag.
  • Negative: Only the C band appears, indicating no Giardia Ag detected.
  • Invalid: The C band does not appear, requiring the test to be repeated.

Storage and Stability

  • Store the kit at room temperature (2-30°C).
  • Avoid direct sunlight and freezing.
  • Stable until the expiration date (18 months) marked on the foil pouch.
