Encephalitozoon cuniculi (E.cuniculi) Nucleic Acid Test Kit (Lyophilized)

Encephalitozoon cuniculi is a microsporidian that parasitizes in rabbits. Its spores are extremely small and nearly spherical in shape.

This parasite mainly invades the nervous system of rabbits, especially the brain, and can cause neurological symptoms in rabbits. Sick rabbits may exhibit abnormal behaviors such as circling, ataxia, head - tilting, etc. 

Encephalitozoon cuniculi may also affect other organs of rabbits, such as the liver, kidneys, etc., causing damage to the functions of the corresponding organs. Its main transmission routes include oral transmission, and rabbits are infected by ingesting contaminated food or water..

Clinical Application:

· Early - stage Diagnosis:
In the early stage of Encephalitozoon cuniculi infection, the clinical symptoms may be very mild and easily overlooked. Nucleic acid detection reagents can detect the pathogen nucleic acid in the early stage of infection, discovering the infection earlier than traditional methods based on symptom - observation. For example, when a rabbit only shows mild behavioral abnormalities, it can be accurately diagnosed, winning time for timely treatment.
Accurate Diagnosis: The neurological symptoms of rabbits may be caused by multiple reasons, such as bacterial infections and poisoning. Nucleic acid detection reagents can specifically detect the nucleic acid of Encephalitozoon cuniculi, accurately distinguishing this disease from other similar diseases and avoiding misdiagnosis.

· Recovery Judgment:
When a rabbit has improved clinical symptoms after treatment and the nucleic acid detection results are continuously negative, it can be determined that the rabbit has recovered. This can ensure that the recovered rabbit can safely return to the rabbit group and avoid re - spreading the pathogen.
