ACCURATE AND RELIABLE 

  • Reliable results thanks to excellent diagnostic performance:

    • Cross-reactivity with closely related parasites such as Sarcoptes scabiei is unlikely
    • Very high reproducibility, repeatability and robustness
  • Enables early detection of Sheep scab thanks to pan-isotype antibody detection (IgG, IgM, IgA)
  • Detects 100% of tested herds presenting clinical signs and which infestation was confirmed by skin scraping
  • Efficient assessment of anti-parasitic treatment efficacy
