Toxoplasma gondii is a common parasite in dogs and cats, with cats as the final host and humans and other animals as intermediate hosts. Toxoplasma gondii infection is mostly a recessive infection. Sick dogs can also have symptoms similar to canine distemper and infectious hepatitis in dogs, characterized by fever, cough, anorexia, and secretions in the eyes and nose, with a few showing paralysis and other neurological symptoms. Pregnant bitches are prone to miscarriage, malformations, or premature birth. This product quickly detects antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii IgG and IgM through immunochromatographic experiments on blood samples from dogs and cats.

Detection principle

This product uses rapid immunochromatography technology to detect antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii IgG and IgM. After adding the diluted sample to the sample adding hole of the test paper card, if there is an antibody against Toxoplasma gondii in the sample, the antibody will specifically bind to the antigen labeled with colloidal gold to form a complex that moves along the chromatographic membrane and is captured by the pre coated protein on the chromatographic membrane, forming a wine red detection line at the positions T1 and T2 of the card shell. If there is no Toxoplasma antibody in the sample, no visible lines will be formed at T1 and T2 positions. In addition, a C line is also designed in the system to verify the effectiveness of the experiment. Regardless of the negative or positive results, the line should be colored, otherwise it will be considered an invalid result.
