INTENDED USE

The Babesia Gibsoni Test is a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of antibodies to Babesia gibsoni (B.gibsoni Ab) in dog’s serum, plasma and whole blood specimen.

PRINCIPLE

The Babesia Gibsoni Test kit is based on sandwich-style lateral flow immune chromatography. The test card has a test window that allows you to watch the analysis run and read the results. Before running the analysis, the test window has invisible T (test) and C (control) areas. When the treated sample is applied to the sample hole on the device, the liquid flows through the surface of the test strip and reacts with the pre-coated recombinant Babes worm antigen. If babes antibodies are present in the specimen, a visible T-line appears. After the sample is applied, the C line should always appear, indicating a valid result. In this way, the device can accurately indicate the presence of babe antibodies in the sample.
