Dog Viral RT-PCR Panel
RT-PCR tests for distemper, parvo, coronavirus and adenovirus in one booking.
4 tests in one package · Sample: Faeces + swab or whole blood (EDTA), as the lab advises
The Dog Viral RT-PCR Panel groups RT-PCR tests for four viruses that make dogs and puppies ill: distemper, parvo, coronavirus and adenovirus. RT-PCR (real-time PCR) looks for the virus's genetic material, so it can name the cause when signs look alike, such as fever, vomiting and loose motions. The lab confirms the sample type for each test when you book. A registered veterinarian reads the results together with the animal's signs and history.
Tests inside this package
-
Canine Distemper RT-PCR is a lab test that looks for the genetic material of canine distemper virus in a dog's blood and urine. It can help detect a current distemper infection, including early cases.
RT-PCR / Molecular TestsSample: Whole blood & urineSingle test: ₹2,000
-
Canine Parvo RT-PCR is a lab test that finds the genetic material (DNA) of canine parvovirus in a dog's blood or stool. It can help detect parvo when a rapid stool kit is negative or unclear.
RT-PCR / Molecular TestsSample: Whole blood / stoolSingle test: ₹2,000
-
The canine coronavirus RT-PCR looks for the genetic material of canine enteric coronavirus in a dog's faeces. It can help find a cause of diarrhoea, mostly in puppies, and it is not a test for COVID-19.
RT-PCR / Molecular TestsSample: Faeces
-
Canine adenovirus (CAV-1 & CAV-2) RT-PCR
The canine adenovirus RT-PCR looks for DNA of canine adenovirus type 1, the cause of infectious canine hepatitis, and type 2, a kennel cough virus. It can help find a viral cause of liver or breathing illness in dogs.
RT-PCR / Molecular TestsSample: Swab, EDTA blood or urine
Who is this package for?

Puppy With Loose Motions: Which Lab Tests Help the Vet
A puppy with loose motions should see a vet quickly. The vet may use a stool test, a parvo rapid test, RT-PCR and a blood count, each answering a different question about the cause.

What Is RT-PCR in Veterinary Testing?
RT-PCR is a lab test that finds the genetic material of a germ in a sample such as a swab, blood or dung. It copies a tiny trace many times until it is easy to detect. A vet reads the result with the animal's signs.

Canine Distemper: RT-PCR Versus the Rapid Test
For suspected canine distemper, the rapid test gives a quick first look, RT-PCR looks for the virus's genetic material and can find small amounts, and the ELISA adds information from the immune side. Vets often read them together.
