Intended UseDesigned for use in veterinary clinics, animal hospitals and research laboratories as a rapid screening and preliminary diagnostic tool for cats suspected of feline infectious peritonitis (e.g., ascites, persistent fever, depression or neurological signs).
Sample Collection & ProcedureFeces sample: Unseal the buffer-containing extraction tube and place in the workstation. Use the swab to collect fresh feline feces or fecal material from the rectum. Insert the swab into the buffer and rotate >10 times. Close the buffer tube. Remove the test device from the foil pouch and place on a clean, flat surface. Add three drops (≈90 μL) of the mixed specimen vertically into the specimen well (S).
Ascites sample: Unseal the extraction tube with buffer. Use the dropper to add one drop (≈30 μL) of ascites into the buffer. Close and mix until specimen and buffer are fully combined. Remove the test device from the foil pouch and add three drops (≈90 μL) of the mixed specimen into the specimen well (S).
Interpretation of Results- Positive (+): both C and T lines appear (T line may be faint or strong).
- Negative (-): only a clear C line appears.
- Invalid: no colored line in the C region (test should be repeated).
