A seroepidemiologic survey in Portugal identified antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 in 21.74% of cats (15/69) and 4.73% of dogs (7/148). This test allows you to determine if your cat is currently infected with SARS-CoV-2 by detecting viral RNA using RT-qPCR. Please note that viral RNA is typically only detectable within the first two weeks post-infection. Molecular Test Diagnostic tests utilize genome amplification (RNA) via real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR). Sample Type Exudate from nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal swabs, and/or rectal swabs. Turnaround Time Standard Processing: 2-5 working days after sample arrival. Client covers shipping costs. PREMIUM Processing: Results within 24 hours. Includes express pick-up and delivery. (Note: Express shipping applies to non-remote European regions. Check remote regions here. Extra fees apply to remote areas.) FAQs Why test cats? Testing is recommended for cats that have had contact with confirmed COVID-19 cases, as transmission from humans or other infected cats is possible. When should cats be tested? Tests are generally performed 5 to 14 days after contact with a confirmed case. Viral load is maximal 5-7 days post-infection and diminishes after 15 days. Specificity and Sensitivity: The rRT-PCR test is 100% specific and does not cross-react with other animal coronaviruses. We use two different SARS-CoV-2 genes as targets for molecular diagnosis.
