4DX Test Dogs Ehrlichia Lyme Anaplasma Heartworm Rapid Test Kit is based on sandwich side flow immunochromatography. The test card has a test window for observing assay runs and reading results. Before running the analysis, the test window has an invisible T (test) area and a C (control) area. As the treated sample is applied to each sample well on the device, the liquid flows across the surface of the test strip and reacts with pre-coated recombinant antigens ehrlichia, Borrelia, Apthenium, and cardiacworm antibodies, respectively . A visible T-line appears if the specimen contains antibodies to Ehrlichia, borrelia, Anaplasmosis, and Carfilaria antigens. The C line should always appear after the sample is applied, indicating that the results are valid. In this way, the device can accurately indicate the presence of Ehrlichia, borrelia, anplasma antibodies and cardiacworm antigens in the specimen
