Babesia caballi detection test kit by using qPCR. Babesiosis is a malaria-like parasitic disease caused by infection with Babesia, a genus of protozoal piroplasms. Is a blood parasite of mammals, and they can have a major impact on the health of domestic animals in areas without severe winters. Common names of the disease include Texas cattle fever, redwater fever, tick fever, and Nantucket fever.

Babesia spp. detection test kit by using qPCR. Babesia (also called nuttallia) is a genus of protozoan Apicomplexan piroplasms that infect the blood and cause a parasitic, hemolytic disease known as babesiosis. Causes serious illness for wild and domesticated animals, especially cattle and some strains in humans.

Babesiosis canina detection test kit by using qPCR. Canine babesiosis is a worldwide, tick-borne, protozoal hemiparasitic disease caused by hemoprotozoan parasites of the genus Babesia. The two predominant species capable of naturally infecting dogs are Babesia gibsoni and Babesia canis. A trinomial nomenclature system for Babesia canis has been proposed as B. canis canis, B canis vogeli and B. canis rossi.

Cytauxzoon spp. detection test kit by using qPCR. Cytauxzoon spp. is a tick-borne protozoan parasite. Some Cytauxzoon species infect wild and domestic felids causing a severe, and often fatal disease. Clinical signs are the result of severe intravascular hemolysis and include anemia, icterus, hepatomegaly, and splenomegaly.

Dirofilaria immitis detection test kit by using qPCR. Dirofilaria immitis (also known as heartworm or dog heartworm) is a parasitic roundworm, a type of filarial worm, that causes dirofilariasis. It is spread from host to host through the bites of mosquitoes. The definitive host is the dog, but it can also infect cats, wolves, coyotes, jackals, foxes, ferrets, bears, seals, sea lions, and, under rare circumstances, humans.

Giardia intestinalis detection test kit by using qPCR. Also known as Giardia lamblia it colonizes and reproduces in the small intestine, causing giardiasis. Infection usually occurs through ingestion of G. intestinalis cysts in water (including both unfiltered drinking water and recreational waters) or food contaminated by the feces of infected humans or animals. G. intestinalis infects humans, but it is also one of the most common parasites infecting cats, dogs and birds. Mammalian hosts also include cattle, beavers, deer, and sheep.

Giardia spp. detection test kit by using qPCR. Giardia is a flagellated protozoon that causes enteric infection giardiasis in dogs and occasionally cats, reptiles, and humans; it is a condition of significant zoonotic concern. Signs vary from acute to chronic or intermittent diarrhea. Transmission is via cysts that are shed in the feces or water.

Haemonchus contortus detection test kit by using qPCR. Haemonchus contortus is an important parasite of sheep and goats, but can infect other ruminants such as cattle, deer, camels, and llamas. The infection, called haemonchosis, causes large economic losses for farmers around the world, especially for those living in warmer climates. Together with H. contortus, H. placei is also a main ruminant parasite that predominates on cattle.
