The QuickProfile FPV Ag Test (Feline Panleukopenia Virus Ag or Parvovirus) is a rapid immunochromatographic test used for the qualitative detection of virus antigens in cat feces or vomit.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE
The lateral flow immunochromatographic assay has a test window. The test window has a T-zone (test) and C-zone (control) that are invisible before specimen is added. When the specimen is applied to the well, the liquid flows laterally onto the surface of the test strip. If there is sufficient antigen presence in the sample, a visible band will appear in the T zone. Band C, which acts as a procedural control, should always appear after a sample has been applied and indicates a valid result.

KIT COMPONENTS
- 10 foil pouches, each containing a cassette, pipette and desiccant
- 10 tubes of thinner
- 10 buffer sticks
- 1 x Instruction manual

SAMPLE PREPARATION
Pick up your dog's feces or vomit with the swab stick. Make sure the swab is sufficiently saturated with the sample.
Insert the wet swab stick into the diluent tube provided. Shake to ensure good sample extraction.

ANALYSIS PROCEDURE
Open the foil pouch and remove the test cassette and place it on a clean, flat surface.
Use the pipette provided to transfer 4 drops of the pre-prepared sample to the well of the test cassette.
Make sure that no air bubbles form inside the pipette when performing the operation.
Interpret the results within 10-15 minutes. After 15 minutes the results are not accurate.

INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS
- Positive test: two lines are evident in the reaction field of the cassette (both C and T line).
- Negative test: Only one line is evident in the field (C).
- Invalid test: if no control line (C) appears after the test, the result is considered invalid. It is not possible to take into account the presence or absence of the line (T). In this case, it is possible that the test procedure was not followed correctly or a test was used beyond the expiration date: in this case, repeat the test with another package.
 
The presence of the line near the letter (C) indicates the control line and indicates the correct execution of the test.
The line (C) is not a reference line and can have a different intensity than the line (T).

TEST STORAGE
Store tests at room temperature (4 ~ 30°C). Do not refrigerate.
Do not store in direct sunlight. The test is valid until the expiry date on the packaging.
