CDV Ag Test Kit Canine Distemper Virus Antigen Rapid Test

Background

Canine distemper is a disease in Canidae (dog, fox, wolf, raccoon dog), Mustelidae (ferret, mink, skunk, wolverine, marten, badger, otter), most Procyonidae (raccoon, coatimundi), some Viverridae (binturong, palm civet), Ailuridae (red panda), Ursidae (bear), Elephantidae (Asian elephant), primates (Japanese monkey), and large Felidae. Domestic dogs (including feral populations) are considered to be the reservoir species in most, if not all, locations.

The disease agent is Canine distemper virus (CDV), a member of Morbillivirus genus in the family Paramyxoviridae, it is a significant viral disease of both captive and free-ranging carnivores globally and is closely related to the viruses of measles and rinderpest. The fragile, enveloped, single-strand RNA virus is relatively unstable outside the host (Loots et al., 2017). The main route of infection is via aerosol droplet secretions from infected animals and, once infected, dogs may shed the virus for several months. The virus initially replicates in the lymphatic tissue of the respiratory tract. A cell-associated viremia results in infection of all lymphatic tissues, which is followed by infection of respiratory, GI, and urogenital epithelium, as well as the CNS and optic nerves. The disease follows virus replication in these tissues. The degree of viremia and the extent of viral spread to various tissues is moderated by the level of specific humoral immunity in the host during the viremic period. Overall, the mortality rate is around 50%, with death occurring 2 weeks to 3 months post-infection. With the potential increasing virulence of emerging strains and the wide host range of canine distemper viruses, widespread vaccination of domestic dogs is considered essential (Martinez-Gutierrez & Ruiz-Saenz, 2016).
