Description
The Bionote Anigen Rapid FCoV Ag Test Kit is a diagnostic tool for the qualitative detection of Feline Coronavirus (FCoV) antigen. This immunochromatographic assay is designed for use with feline fecal samples to aid in the screening and identification of FCoV infection in cats. Feline coronavirus can lead to mild gastrointestinal issues or progress to the more serious Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP). This test is intended for veterinary diagnostic use only.
Rapid Immunochromatographic Assay: This test is a chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of Feline Coronavirus antigen in a cat's feces or vomit.
Qualitative Detection: It helps in identifying the presence of Feline Coronavirus antigen, which can be shed in the feces of infected cats.
Simple Specimen Collection: The test utilizes a simple-to-collect sample of feline feces using a swab.
Fast Results: The test provides results within a 5 to 10-minute window.
Complete Kit: The package includes test devices, specimen tubes with assay diluent, sample collection swabs, and disposable droppers.
