Parasites

The Real Time PCR detection Kit Canine Mini Screening Panel (Babesiosis canina, Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Ehrlichia spp.) comprises a series of specific targeted reagents designed for Babesiosis canina, Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Ehrlichia spp. detection by using qPCR.

Cytauxzoon spp. detection test kit by using qPCR. Cytauxzoon spp. is a tick-borne protozoan parasite. Some Cytauxzoon species infect wild and domestic felids causing a severe, and often fatal disease. Clinical signs are the result of severe intravascular hemolysis and include anemia, icterus, hepatomegaly, and splenomegaly.

The Real Time PCR detection Kit Dermanyssus gallinae comprises a series of specific targeted reagents designed for Dermanyssus gallinae detection by using qPCR.

Dirofilaria immitis detection test kit by using qPCR. Dirofilaria immitis (also known as heartworm or dog heartworm) is a parasitic roundworm, a type of filarial worm, that causes dirofilariasis. It is spread from host to host through the bites of mosquitoes. The definitive host is the dog, but it can also infect cats, wolves, coyotes, jackals, foxes, ferrets, bears, seals, sea lions, and, under rare circumstances, humans.

The Real Time PCR detection Kit Equine Protozoos Panel (Theileria equi and Babesia caballi) comprises a series of specific targeted reagents designed for Theileria equi and Babesia caballi detection by using qPCR.

Giardia intestinalis detection test kit by using qPCR. Also known as Giardia lamblia it colonizes and reproduces in the small intestine, causing giardiasis. Infection usually occurs through ingestion of G. intestinalis cysts in water (including both unfiltered drinking water and recreational waters) or food contaminated by the feces of infected humans or animals. G. intestinalis infects humans, but it is also one of the most common parasites infecting cats, dogs and birds. Mammalian hosts also include cattle, beavers, deer, and sheep.

Giardia spp. detection test kit by using qPCR. Giardia is a flagellated protozoon that causes enteric infection giardiasis in dogs and occasionally cats, reptiles, and humans; it is a condition of significant zoonotic concern. Signs vary from acute to chronic or intermittent diarrhea. Transmission is via cysts that are shed in the feces or water.

Haemonchus contortus detection test kit by using qPCR. Haemonchus contortus is an important parasite of sheep and goats, but can infect other ruminants such as cattle, deer, camels, and llamas. The infection, called haemonchosis, causes large economic losses for farmers around the world, especially for those living in warmer climates. Together with H. contortus, H. placei is also a main ruminant parasite that predominates on cattle.

The Real Time PCR detection Kit Haemoparasitic Protozoan Panel (Theileria spp. and Babesia spp.) comprises a series of specific targeted reagents designed for Theileria spp. and Babesia spp. detection by using qPCR.

Detection test kit of Hepatozoon spp. species by using qPCR. Hepatozoon is a genus of Apicomplexan protozoa. Despite their prevalence in amphibians and reptiles, the genus is better known in veterinary circles for causing a tick-borne disease called hepatozoonosis in some mammals. Hepatozoonosis results when an animal eats an infected tick (the disease is not spread by tick bites). Some species included are Hepatozoon muris and Hepatozoon canis, which typically infect mice and dogs.

The Real Time PCR detection Kit Leishmania infantum (Leishmania donovani complex) comprises a series of specific targeted reagents designed for Leishmania infantum (Leishmania donovani complex) detection by using qPCR.

Detection by using qPCR of species of the genus Leishmania (Leishmania major, L. tropica, L. infantum, L. chagasi, L. donovani, L. mexicana venezuelensis, L. aethiopica, L. amazonensis, L. mexicana amazonensis, L. turanica, L. gerbilli, L. panamensis, L. braziliensis, etc.). Leishmania is a genus of Trypanosomatidprotozoa and is the parasite responsible for the disease leishmaniasis. Their primary hosts are vertebrates; Leishmania commonly infects hyraxes, canids, rodents, and humans.

Neospora caninum detection test kit by using qPCR. Neospora caninum is responsible for neosporosis, an infectious disease for many canids and cattle. Neuromuscular degeneration in canids, which led to hind limb paralysis, and spontaneous abortion in dairy cattle were observed as major causes of disease by neosporosis. The definitive hosts are domestic dogs, coyotes, grey wolves, and dingos; where the parasite can complete their life cycle. Recent studies have broadened the list of known intermediate hosts to include birds, which can be an important link in the transmission to other animals.

Neospora spp. detection test kit by using qPCR. Neospora is s pathogen recently identified as causing neosporosis in cattle and dogs. The dog is the definitive host, cattle are the intermediate host and other mammalian species may act as incidental hosts. Neosporosis causes abortions in cattle and neuromuscular degeneration in dogs which led to hind limb paralysis.

Strongylus vulgaris detection test kit by using qPCR. Strongylus vulgaris (commonly known as the blood worm), is a common horse parasite in the phylum Nematoda. S. vulgaris is responsible verminous arteritis and is a common cause of colic in horses. Symptoms can range from weightless or dull hair coat to diarrhea, weakness, anorexia and anemia.

The Real Time PCR detection Kit Theileria annulata comprises a series of specific targeted reagents designed for Theileria annulata detection by using qPCR.
