Card Agglutination Test for animal Trypanosomiasis

caused by T.evansi

This field and laboratory test (CATT/T.evansi) is used for the serodiagnosis of animal African trypanosomiasis (T. evansi). It is a direct card agglutination test for detection of trypanosome specific antibodies in blood, serum or plasma of T.evansi in different animal species.

It is currently applied for serodiagnosis of T.evansi in various host species (i.e. camels. buffaloes, equidae, dogs,…)

Reagent | Freeze dried suspension of purified, fixed and stained trypanosomes of a cloned predominant Variable Antigen Type (VAT RoTat 1.2) of T.evansi.
Test sample | Whole blood (for screening), plasma (on heparine or EDTA) or serum.
Shelf life - expiry date | When stored under the prescribed storage conditions, all the reagents will retain their activity until the expiry date mentioned on the “Reagent” boxes and on the packing list (1 year).

Storage

·         Freeze dried reagents (antigen, controls) : in the refrigerator(+2°C to +8°C) or in the freezer (-20°C)

·         CATT buffer: in the refrigerator (+2°C to +8°C) – do not freeze!

·         During transport, storage and handling: avoid exposure to heat and direct sunlight.

·         It is recommended to dispatch the reagents from a central storage centre to the field under refrigerated conditions (cold chain).

Packaging

Test kit containing all reagents and accessory materials + protocol.

·         CATT/Tev T250: 250 screening tests
