Background
Giardia is a simple one-celled parasitic species; it is not a "worm", bacteria or virus. There are seven genotypes, A through G, with dogs being most commonly infected by C and D, cats with F, and humans most commonly infected with A and B. Genotypes E and F are rarely reported. The parasite occurs worldwide and is a common cause of "Traveler's Diarrhea" in people. Outdoor enthusiasts who inadvertently consume contaminated water may develop "beaver fever", which is another name for giardiasis in people. Other examples of protozoan parasites that can cause enteric (intestinal) disease are Coccidia, Cryptosporidia and Toxoplasma.
Giardiasis can be an important cause of illness, especially diarrhea, in animals and people. However, the majority of dogs
infected with Giardia do not have diarrhea, vomiting, or any other signs of illness.
The Giardia organism has two forms. A fragile feeding form, known as the trophozoite, exists in the gut of infected animals, while a hardy cystic form is shed in feces and can survive several months in the environment, particularly in water and damp environments.
Intended Use
Giardia is a common intestinal parasite that affects not only dogs but also cats and humans. It can cause symptoms like
diarrhea, vomiting, gas, and abdominal discomfort in dogs. The Giardia Antigen Rapid Test is a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of Giardia antigen (Giardia Ag) in dog's feces or vomit specimen.
