Horse Disease Screening Pack
EIA (Coggins), glanders, surra smear and tick fever RT-PCR for horses.
4 tests in one package · Sample: Serum + whole blood (EDTA)
The Horse Disease Screening Pack groups tests for four diseases that matter when horses are bought, sold, moved or kept together: equine infectious anaemia (EIA), glanders, surra and tick fever. EIA and glanders are notifiable, and glanders can pass to people, so owners should tell their veterinarian or the animal husbandry department about a positive result. A vet should take the samples. A registered veterinarian reads the results together with the animal's signs and history.
Tests inside this package

The Coggins test is a blood test that looks for antibodies to the equine infectious anaemia (EIA) virus. It can help your vet find horses that carry the virus, and some buyers, events and authorities ask for the result.
Serology & Special MarkersSample: Serum (plain)
-
A glanders antibody test is a blood test that looks for antibodies to the glanders bacterium in a horse. It can help your vet screen a horse with nasal discharge, skin nodules or sores, or one that has been near an infected horse.
Serology & Special MarkersSample: Serum (plain)
-
Trypanosome detection is a microscope test that looks for tiny blood parasites, such as Trypanosoma evansi, which causes surra, in fresh blood and in a buffy coat smear made from spun blood. It is used for cows, buffaloes and dogs; a negative smear does not rule infection out.
HaematologySample: Whole blood (EDTA)

Equine tick fever RT-PCR (Theileria equi & Babesia caballi)
This RT-PCR test looks for the genetic material of Theileria equi and Babesia caballi, the tick-borne parasites that cause tick fever (equine piroplasmosis) in horses. It can find infections that a blood smear misses.
