This is now in addition to the ten previously commercialized PCRun^® molecular detection test kits for Canine Pathogenic Leptospira, Canine Ehrlichia canis, Canine Leishmania infantum, Canine Anaplasma platys, Canine Babesia canis and gibsoni, Canine/Feline Parvovirus (CPV/FPLV), Canine Distemper virus, Feline Mycoplasma haemofelis, Feline Leukemia Virus (DNA and RNA).

Clinical diagnosis of early canine distemper is difficult due to the broad spectrum of signs that may be confounded with other respiratory and enteric diseases for dogs.

The sensitivity, specificity and rapidity of molecular methods such PCRun, when compared with conventional methods, make molecular techniques preferable for Distemper diagnosis. However to date, Veterinarians have been frustrated with waiting up to one week to receive a PCR result from a vet lab.
