The SaberVet Canine Leptospirosis Antibody Rapid Test offered by Antigenne is a lateral flow immunoassay intended for the qualitative detection of Leptospirosis antibody (C.Lepto Ab) in whole blood/serum/plasma sample. Description Canine leptospirosis, caused by a bacterium of the genus Leptospira, is a worldwide zoonosis that infects dogs, humans, and other animals, and can cause severe clinical symptoms and even death. 1.Clinical symptoms Symptoms of canine leptospirosis vary according to the serotype of the infected leptospirosis, the infectious dose and the immune status of the host, and are categorized into acute symptoms, chronic symptoms and severe infection. Acute symptoms: fever, loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhea (which may be bloody), jaundice, muscle pain, and bleeding tendencies. Chronic symptoms: dogs may exhibit signs of renal insufficiency, liver impairment, and uremia. Severe infection: may lead to acute renal failure, hepatitis, hemorrhagic pneumonia and death. 2.Transmission The transmission route of canine leptospirosis is mainly divided into direct contact, indirect contact and host. Direct contact: transmitted through urine, blood, tissue or other body fluids of infected animals, especially in moist environments where the bacteria can survive in water or moist soil for weeks to months. Indirect contact: spread through contaminated water, food, or the environment. Host: Wild rodents and domestic animals are the main carriers and transmitters. Dogs are infected through contact with the feces of these animals or contaminated environments.
