Product description Giardia rapid test

60-80% of all young dogs and kittens in Germany are affected by a giardia disease - even under the best conditions. Giardia can be transmitted from animals to humans and vice versa. The symptoms in humans are similar to those in dogs and cats: chronic diarrhoea, vomiting and, as a result, malnutrition and growth disorders.

Giardia nests in the small intestine, where they can multiply explosively by splitting into two parts. In the rectum, they form into highly infectious, very environmentally resistant cysts that are excreted in the faeces. Infection is faecal-oral, for example, when a dog or cat sniffs the faeces of another dog or drinks from a contaminated puddle.

Even ten cysts are enough for transmission of the infection. Considering that an infected dog or cat excretes around 100,000 cysts per gram of faeces for up to five weeks, the risk of infection is alarmingly high.

Signs and symptoms that indicate a Giardia lamblia infection, as well as more information, can be found on our topics page under veterinary rapid test.

 

Product description Parvovirus rapid test

Canine Parvovirus (CPV2, 2a, 2b, 2c) and feline Parvovirus (FPV) belong to the same virus family. Canine parvovirus and feline panleukopenia are highly contagious, mostly acute infectious diseases. The virus is spread worldwide, infection is usually oral, but also intrauterine. New types of CPV2 can infect dogs and cats and can be transmitted between them. CPV and FPV are very similar and can therefore be detected by a single test.

Symptoms in both dogs and cats depend on age, breed and overall health. However, unvaccinated puppies and kittens are the worst affected. The virus mainly attacks the gastrointestinal tract and the heart muscle. Diseased animals suffer from diarrhoea, vomiting and loss of appetite followed by massive dehydration. Sudden deaths from cardiovascular failure are rare.

The test is suitable for early detection of suspected parvovirus infection or clinical symptoms in dogs and cats.

 

Product description Coronavirus rapid rest for dogs and cats

Canine coronavirus (CCoV) and feline coronavirus (FCoV) belong to the same family of viruses and are found worldwide. The infection is usually oral. Coronaviruses show high mutation rates overall, which favours the emergence of new variants.

Many infections cause only mild intestinal symptoms, such as diarrhoea in dogs and cats. Severe disease occurs mainly in puppies and kittens with apathy and anorexia, diarrhoea, dehydration and fever, rarely with severe bloody diarrhoea and death. Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a deadly disease caused by a coronavirus that only affects cats. Symptoms include loss of appetite and emaciation, fluid accumulation in the thoracic and abdominal cavities, and intermittent fever resistant to therapy.

The test is useful for early detection of coronavirus infection in case of suspicion or clinical symptoms. As coronavirus shedding can be interrupted, the test should be repeated if necessary.

If in doubt, immediately notify a veterinarian and bring your pet. If the rapid test shows a positive result, take the test and the faecal sample to your veterinarian.
