Canine Heartworm Ag Rapid Test/ Veterinarian heartworm diagnosis test kit

Introduction

Lyme disease is caused by a bacteria called Borrelia burgdorferi, which is passed to dogs through a 
bite from the deer tick.  The tick must remain attached to the dog’s skin for one to two days before 
the bacteria can be transmitted. Lyme disease can be a multi-systemic illness, with signs that may 
include fever, swollen lymph nodes, lameness, loss of appetite, heart disease, inflamed joints, and 
kidney disease. Disorders of the nervous system, while uncommon, may occur as well. A vaccine 
is available to prevent dogs from developing Lyme disease, although some controversy exists 
regarding its use. An owner should consult with a veterinarian for vaccine recommendations. 
Without treatment, Lyme disease causes problems in many parts of the dog’s body, including the 
heart, kidneys, and joints. On rare occasions, it can lead to neurological disorders. Lyme disease 
most commonly is associated with symptoms such as a high fever, swollen lymph nodes, lameness, 
and a loss of appetite. 

Principles

 Lyme Ab Test Kit is designed to detect the antibodies of Borrelia burgdorferiin 
canine whole blood, serum or plasma. After being absorbed into the cellulose pad, the antibodies of 
Borrelia burgdorferimove and bind with gold-colloid complex of Borrelia burgdorferiantigen of 
the conjugate pad, forming Ag-Ab complex. This complex, then, forms Ag-Ab-Ag direct sandwich 
binding with antigen (Ag) of Borrelia burgdorferiin the nitrocellulose membrane. The test results 
can appear on Control (C) and Test (T) lines where the principles of immunochromatography are 
used.

Characteristics

1) One-step rapid test of Borrelia burgdorferiantibodies 
2) Rapid test results between 5 ~ 10 minutes 
3) Expensive equipment not required 
4) Easy storage and maintenance 
5) High-purity and high-quality materials of the test kit increase its sensitivity and specificity. 
Materials (10 tests/kit) 
1)  Test -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 10 units 
2)  Diluent (buffer) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2  x 1 unit

Composition 
Specimen well (S: for dropping), Test line (T), and Control line (C) are marked on the device. 
Inside of it, the strip is composed of sample pad, conjugate pad, nitrocellulose membrane (test 
paper) and absorbent pad

Effect

Detection of anti-Borrelia burgdorferi(Lyme) antibody from feline whole blood, serum, or plasma
Uses 
1)  Specimen
Canine whole blood, serum or plasma
2) Test procedure 
a)  When specimen and test kits are stored at cold circumstances (2~8  ), put them at room  °C
temperature for 15~30 minutes before use.  
b) Take out a device from a pouch and place it on a horizontal surface. 
c)  Using a dropper as a pipette, obtain the specimen and dispense 1 drop (40 ) of the 
fluid into the specimen well (S). 
d) When the specimen is completely absorbed into the specimen well (S), Drop about 
1 drop (40 ) of buffer.  
e)  Read the test results between 5 ~ 10 minutes. 
♠ Invalid result after 10 minutes 
3) Interpretation of the results 
A purple band should appear on the control line regardless of the test result. The presence of 
another band on the test line determines the result. 
Control Line (C): The line should always appear regardless of the presence of the 
antibodies of Borrelia burgdorferi. If this line does not appear, the test 
should be considered invalid. This might be because of impure buffer or 
the lack of specimen. It should be tested again with new buffer.

Test Line (T): The presence of antibodies of Borrelia burgdorferidetermines the test line.  
(1) Negative: Control line only appears. 
(2) Positive: Both Test and Control lines appear. 
(3) Retesting 
a)  Both Test and Control lines do not appear. 
b) Test line only appears. 
 Lyme Positive (+): 
A positive result implies the dog has the antibody to Borrelia burgdorferi. The fact of positive result 
does not necessarily mean that it is in the infected status. This still does not address distinguishing 
active infection from exposure.  
Lyme Negative (-): 
 If the cat has no antibody to Borrelia burgdorferi, it would be better to plan ofvaccination. If the dog is 
suspected to be infected but has negative result, it needs to be tested repeatedly 2 or 3 times more. The time 
of the test could have beenthe period of seroconversion.
Further examinations 
This test is for primary screening only. Consult veterinarians for further necessary examinations to 
obtain clinical test results.

Precautions

1)  Use for Canine in-vitrodiagnostic purposes only.  
2) Use within 10 minutes after opening the pouch because the test kit is very sensitive to 
moisture and its effect may diminish.     
3)  Be careful of not touching the result window. 
4)  Every specimen should be used with different droppers. 
5)  For testing, the buffer included should be used. 
6) Do not use specimen showing hemolysis or being contaminated with microbes, which may 
cause false positive or false negative result. 
7) Deal with specimen carefully. They can deliver unknown virus or infectious bacteria. 
8) Use disposable gloves when you suspect the infection caused by specimen. And wash your 
hands later.   
9)  Dispose solid wastes after sterilizing them at 121  for over 1 hour. °C
10) Do not use the kit when its pouch is torn, sealing is not good in shape or expiration date is 
passed.
