Information for the veterinarian
The URANOTEST Dirofilaria diagnostic kit is based on the immunochromatographic technique and is designed for the qualitative detection of Dirofilaria immitis (D. immitis) in feline and canine whole blood, serum and plasma. The test uses specific antibodies to identify D. immitis antigens with high sensitivity.
The test consists of several overlapped membranes. On one of the membranes, there are a test line (T line) and control line (C line). The lines are not visible before applying the sample. After applying the sample in the appropriate sample well, migration begins by capillarity action through the membrane. If the result is negative, one purple colour band appears in the C area. This line, called control line, always appears, as it is a control line indicating that the test has successfully performed. If the test result is positive, in addition to the control line, a second line will form in the test area (Test line).
