The Canine Influenza Virus Ag Rapid Test is a sandwich lateral flow immunochromatographic assay designed for the qualitative detection of canine influenza virus antigens (CIV Ag) in dog secretions.
Test Time
- 5 – 10 minutes
Test Samples
- Dog secretions (e.g., nasal or throat swabs)
Detection Principle
The Canine Influenza Virus Ag Rapid Test uses a sandwich lateral flow immunochromatographic assay. The test device features a testing window with two zones: an invisible T (test) zone and a C (control) zone. When a sample is applied to the sample hole on the device, the liquid flows laterally across the surface of the test strip. A visible T band will appear in the testing window if the sample contains sufficient influenza antigen. The C band should always appear after applying a sample, indicating a valid result. This mechanism ensures the device accurately indicates the presence of canine influenza antigens in the sample.
