Tick Fever RT-PCR Pack

Blood smear panel, CBC and a tick fever RT-PCR panel for cows and buffaloes with fever or anaemia.

3 tests in one package · Sample: Whole blood (EDTA)

The Tick Fever RT-PCR Pack pairs a blood smear and CBC with a tick fever RT-PCR panel, which typically looks for Theileria, Babesia and Anaplasma. Smears are quick but can miss light infections and carriers, while RT-PCR (real-time PCR) can find smaller amounts of the parasite's genetic material. The exact list in the panel is confirmed when you book. A registered veterinarian reads the results together with the animal's signs and history.

Tests inside this package

  • Tick fever panel (cattle & buffalo)

    The tick fever panel checks a stained blood smear from a cow or buffalo for Theileria, Babesia and Anaplasma, the germs behind tick fever. Your vet reads the report with the animal's signs.

    Cow & Buffalo (Livestock) TestsSample: Whole blood (EDTA) + blood smear

  • CBC

    A CBC counts the red cells, white cells and platelets in a blood sample and can help show anaemia (low red cells), infection or inflammation (the body's reaction to injury). It suits dogs, cats, cows and buffaloes.

Questions about this package

Why use both a smear and RT-PCR?
A smear gives a fast first look and shows how parasites are affecting red cells. RT-PCR can find smaller amounts and name the parasite. Together they give your vet a stronger picture.
Can a cow carry tick fever without signs?
Yes. Some animals carry the parasites without clear signs and can still be a source of infection through ticks. RT-PCR can help find them.
How should the blood sample be sent?
Blood goes in an EDTA tube and is kept cool. The lab tells you how to pack and send it when you book.

Packages support your veterinarian’s decisions; they do not replace an examination. A registered veterinarian should read the results together with your animal’s signs and history.
