Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2023/077043
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Among several illnesses common to pets such as dogs that can also affect humans, American trypanosomiasis, commonly known as Chagas disease, is a parasitic 20 condition caused by the hemoflagellated protozoa, Trypanosoma cruzi. Active transmission is through triatomine vectors known as kissing bugs, which are prevalent in North and South America. Diagnostic methods, systems, test strips, test kits, and other immunoassay materials are provided for the detection of antibodies to one or more specific parasites of veterinary and human concern in biological samples, including those that are responsible for Chagas disease (Trypanosoma cruzi), Leishmaniasis (Leishmania infantum), and Heartworm (Dirofilaria immitis).
