Ehrlichia Canis Ab Test

INTENDED USE

Quicking Ehrlichia Canis Ab Rapid Test is a sandwich lateral flow immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of Ehrlichia Canis antibody (Ehrli Ab) in dog’s serum or plasma.

Assay Time: 5-10 min
Sample: serum or plasma.


PRINCIPLE OF THE ASSAY

Quicking Ehrlichia Canis Ab Rapid 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 Ehrlichia Canis antibodies 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 Ehrlichia Canis antibodies in the sample.
