Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Antibody Test kit (FIV-Ab)

Test principle of the Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Antibody Test kit

This product uses a rapid immunochromatographic technique for the detection of feline HIV antibodies in cat whole blood or serum. If the FIV antibody was present in the sample, it would bind specifically to the recombinant protein labeled with colloidal gold to form a complex that moved along the chromatographic membrane and was captured by the FIV antigen coated on the membrane, showing a wine red line on the detection line (T). If the FIV antibody is not present in the sample, no visible line is formed at the T position. No matter the result is negative or positive, the C line should be colored, otherwise the result is invalid.

Sample Requirements of Feline Immunodeficiency Virus Antibody Test kit

1. Please refer to the instructions for use
2. This kit is only suitable for testing feline whole blood or serum samples (hemolysis and hyperlipidemia samples cannot be used).
3. Collect fresh samples and immediately put into the extraction buffer solution, which should be detected as soon as possible within 1 hour.
4. If samples were not timely detected, store within 24 hours at 2-8°C and store within 1 month at -20°C.

Interpretation of Results

Negative: Only the C line appears as a red color.
Positive: Both T and C lines appear purplish red.
Invalid: No color appears in the C line.

NOTE: Invalid test results can be caused by a variety of reasons and should be re-tested.
