Giardiasis is an intestinal infection caused by a parasitic protozoan (single celled organism) called Giardia lamblia. Both Giardia lamblia cysts and trophozoites can be found in the feces. Infection occurs by the ingestion of Giardia lamblia cysts in contaminated water, food, or by the fecal-oral route (hands or fomites). These protozoans are found in the intestines of many animals, including dogs and humans. This microscopic parasite clings to the surface of the intestine, or floats free in the mucous lining the intestine.
The Giardia Antigen Rapid Test Card uses rapid immunochromatographic detection technology to detect Giardia antigen. Samples taken from rectum or stool are added to the wells and moved along the chromatography membrane with colloidal gold-labeled anti-GIA monoclonal antibody. If the GIA antigen is present in the sample, it binds to the antibody on the test line and appears burgundy. If the GIA antigen is not present in the sample, no color reaction occurs.
