Pigeon Trichomonas gallinae (PiTG) 50/100T Nucleic Acid Detection Kit

Catalog No.: AP2409008 | Specification: 50/100 Tests | Storage: -20℃

Product Overview

Pigeon trichomoniasis (Pigeon Trichomonas gallinae, PiTG), also known as “canker” or “oral ulcer,” is one of the most common pigeon diseases worldwide. While most adult pigeons are asymptomatic carriers, they often transmit the parasite to squabs during feeding. Young pigeons, with weaker immunity, are particularly vulnerable—leading to oral lesions, feeding difficulties, reduced growth performance, and in severe cases, high mortality rates.

Early, rapid, and reliable detection of PiTG is essential for effective disease management, preventing large-scale outbreaks, and protecting pigeon health.
This PiTG Nucleic Acid Detection Kit uses a PCR fluorescent probe method with primers and probes designed from conserved sequences of the PiTG genome. With optimized reaction conditions, the kit allows fast, specific, and sensitive detection of PiTG DNA from oral/cloacal swabs, blood, or tissue samples, providing accurate results for scientific research and disease prevention.

Key Features & Advantages

• 🔬 High Specificity – Targets conserved PiTG gene regions to minimize false positives and ensure accurate results.

• ⚡ Rapid Results – Complete workflow (sample prep + PCR amplification) in just a few hours, enabling timely diagnosis.

• 🎯 High Sensitivity – Detects low parasite loads, supporting early detection of hidden or asymptomatic infections.

• 🧪 User-Friendly Workflow – Optimized reagents compatible with multiple sample types: swabs, blood, and tissues.

• 📦 Complete Kit – Includes PiTG detection reagent, positive control, and negative control—ready to use.

• 🧊 Stable Storage – Long shelf life (≥12 months at -20℃) with consistent performance.

• 🐦 Research-Oriented – Designed for laboratories, veterinary research centers, pigeon farms, and disease monitoring programs.

Kit Components (12 Tests)

• PiTG Detection Reagent: 290 μL

• PiTG Positive Control: 100 μL

• Negative Control: 100 μL

Recommended Applications

• ✅ Early screening of squabs and young pigeons for Pigeon Trichomonas gallinae infection

• ✅ Routine disease monitoring in pigeon farms and breeding facilities

• ✅ Veterinary and scientific research on PiTG transmission and prevention

• ✅ Epidemiological studies for understanding disease spread and control strategies

Why Choose This Kit?

• Helps pigeon breeders and veterinarians detect PiTG early, before symptoms cause economic or breeding losses.

• Offers a reliable tool for disease prevention programs, ensuring healthier flocks and improved survival rates.

• Reduces the risk of secondary infections and complications by enabling fast intervention and treatment decisions.

• Provides confidence in results with a validated PCR fluorescent probe method trusted by laboratories.

Storage & Stability

• Store at -20℃; avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

• Shelf life: at least 12 months under recommended conditions.

⚠️ Important Notes

• For research use only. Not for clinical diagnostic purposes.

• Strict laboratory practices are required to avoid cross-contamination (use separate work areas for sample prep, reagent setup, and PCR).

• Negative results do not fully exclude infection if the sample quality is poor or the parasite load is extremely low. Retesting is recommended in doubtful cases.

👉 This Pigeon Trichomonas gallinae (PiTG) PCR Detection Kit is a practical, reliable, and cost-effective solution for laboratories, pigeon farms, and veterinary researchers who aim to protect pigeon health and prevent disease outbreaks.
