Giardia Antigen (GIA Ag) Test Kit is a sandwich lateral flow immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of Giardia in dog’s feces or vomit. 【testing principle】 Giardia Ag Test is based on sandwich lateral flow immunochromatographic assay. The test device has a testing window. The testing window has an invisible T (test) zone and C (control) zone. When sample is applied into the sample hole on the device, the liquid will laterally flow on the surface of the test strip. If there is enough Giardia antigen in the sample, a visible T band will appear. The C band should always appear after a sample is applied, indicating a valid result. By this means, the device can accurately indicate the presence of Giardia antigen in the sample. Note: swabs are complimentary separately according to package specifications. 【Storage and expiration date】 The kit is stored at 2-30℃. Do not freeze. Valid for 24 months; After the kit is opened, the reagent should be used as soon as possible. 【Sample requirement】 Samples should be tested on the same day; Samples that cannot be tested on the same day should be stored at 2-8 ° C, and those that exceed 24 hours should be stored at -20 ° C. 【Inspection method】 1. Collect dog’s fresh feces or vomit with the cotton swab from dog’s anus or on the ground. 2. Insert the wet swab into the provided assay buffer tubes. Agitate it completely to get efficient sample extraction. If the fecal particles are large, let it stand for 1-2 minutes to precipitate. 3. Take out the test device from the foil pouch and place it horizontally. 4. Vertically drip 3 drops of sample extraction into the sample hole with disposable droppers.
