How does the test work?
Mix the sample (stool, blood, discharge or tick) with the buffer provided, then put a few drops on the test cassette. Read the result after 5–10 minutes; after 15 minutes it is invalid. The C (control) line must always appear; if the T (test) line is also visible, the result is positive. In detail: How it works
What a rapid test can't do
- A rapid test is a screening tool: it gives quick orientation, but it is not a diagnosis and does not replace a veterinary examination.
- If the result is positive, always see a vet.
- A negative result does not rule out every infection. Giardia cysts, for example, are shed intermittently, so a single negative sample does not rule out an infection.
- After successful Giardia treatment the antigen can remain detectable for a while, so a rapid test right after treatment is not meaningful.
- With warning signs (bloody diarrhoea, repeated vomiting, severe lethargy, dehydration – especially in puppies and kittens) don't wait for a test: take the animal to a vet immediately.
