Uranotest FeLV-FIV

Simultaneous detection of feline leukaemia antigens and feline immunodeficiency antibodies in blood, serum or plasma.

Ideal both for screening and for clinical differentiation in cats with clinical pictures compatible with both diseases. It detects specific p27 (Leukaemia) and gp40 (Immunodeficiency) antigens: it does not interfere with vaccinations. 2-step technique: savings in time and fewer errors.

Formats available: 5 and 10 tests.

Characteristics

  • It detects specific p27 (Leukaemia) and gp40 (Immunodeficiency) antigens.
  • It does not interfere with vaccinations.
  • Only 10 micro-litres of sample are needed (a big advantage with kittens, when it is difficult to extract a large volume of blood).
  • Simple 2-step technique: save time and prevent mistakes.

Information for the veterinarian

The URANOTEST FeLV-FIV diagnostic kit is based on the immunochromatographic technique and is designed for the qualitative detection of Feline Immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and Feline Leukaemia virus (FeLV) in feline whole blood, serum and plasma.

The test has a double structure; it contains two single tests: a strip for FeLV antigen detection and a strip for FIV antibody detection. Each 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).

  1. Double test devices individually packaged in aluminium pouch.
  2. Dropper bottle with buffer solution.
  3. Disposable capillary pipettes for sample collection. The mark at the capillary indicates a volume of 10 µl.
  1. Vials with anticoagulant (EDTA) for blood collection.
  2. Instructions for use.
  1. For veterinary use only.
  2. Wear disposable gloves when handling the samples. All samples should be treated as potentially infectious. Wash and disinfect hands after handling. Avoid aerosol formation when dispensing the sample.
  3. To obtain good results, it is important to add the correct sample volume.
  4. Open the device just before use.
  5. All reagents must be at room temperature before performing the test.
  6. Do not use the test if the envelope is damaged or broken.
  7. Do not re-use.
  8. Do not use reagents after the expiry date.
  9. Do not use kits with different batch numbers.
  10. The quality of each component of the kit has been individually assessed for each batch. Do not mix components or reagents from kits with different batch numbers.
