ITGen Canine Lyme Antigen Rapid Test
The Lyme Antigen Rapid Test is a rapid, qualitative immunoassay designed for the detection of Borrelia burgdorferi antigens in ticks collected from dogs. This kit is intended for use as a screening tool to identify the presence of Lyme disease-causing B. burgdorferi in ticks, aiding in the early assessment of potential infection risks to both dogs and humans

Lyme disease is caused by spirochete bacteria belonging to the genus Borrelia, with B. burgdorferi sensu stricto (s.s.) found in the Americas, and B. afzelii and B. garinii, in addition to B. burgdorferi s.s., in Europe and Asia..
Clinical manifestations in humans include, in the early phases, erythema migrans, followed several weeks later by neuro-borreliosis (meningo-radiculitis, meningitis or meningo-encephalitis), Lyme arthritis and/or Borrelia lymphocytoma.
In dogs, acute signs include fever, general malaise, lameness, lymph node enlargement and polyarthritis, as well as neuro-borreliosis in the chronic form.Diagnosis is mainly serological in both humans and animals, based on either a two-tier approach (an immunoenzymatic test followed by a Western blot confirmatory test) in humans or C(6) peptide, only in dogs.
Using Lyme antigen rapid Test, potential Borrelia burgdorferi antigens in ticks can be detected in the field, quickly, easily and reliably. How to use? Check the product contents and make sure the test operation is under the room temperature (15–30℃) before testing. Open the sample tube and place the tick in the sample tube.
