Feline coronavirus antigen (FCoV Ag) Test Kit

FCoV is an intestinal infectious disease of cats caused by enteric coronavirus. It belongs to the Coronaviridae family and the Coronavirus genus. Dehydration may occur and the fatality rate is relatively low. It mainly causes enteritis in young cats of a low age. It has weak resistance to external physical and chemical factors and can be inactivated by most disinfectants.

Clinical application:

· Early diagnosis and intervention:

Through FCoV testing, it is possible to detect whether a cat is infected with the coronavirus at an early stage. This is particularly important for multi-cat households or catteries, because early diagnosis can help control the spread of the virus.

· Prevention of the occurrence of FIP:

Although most FCoV infections do not result in FIP, FIP may be triggered under specific circumstances (such as virus mutation). By detecting FCoV, the risk of FIP occurrence in the cat population can be assessed and preventive measures can be taken.

· Vaccination Strategy:

FCoV antibody testing can evaluate the immune status of cats and help determine whether cats have been exposed to the virus before, thereby guiding vaccination and immune management strategies.

· Scientific research and the development of new therapies:

The FCoV test data is very important for studying the transmission, variation and pathogenic mechanism of the virus, and it helps scientists to develop new diagnostic tools, vaccines and treatment methods.
