Why Test?

Why is it important to test for Avian Influenza?

Avian Influenza or ‘bird flu’ is a highly infectious disease which affects a wide range of avian species and can be spread worldwide by the spreading of the type A strains of the influenza virus otherwise known as Orthomyxoviridae.

There are 15 known subtypes of the virus affecting birds and thus provides an extensive reservoir of influenza virus which circulates in bird populations, therefore making the FASTest AIV Ag Test kit ideal for detecting all subtypes of the virus on-site and quickly.

Symptoms

What are the symptoms of Avian Influenza?

The clinical symptoms of Avian Influenza can develop suddenly and can strongly affect the bird.

Symptoms can include any of the following:

  • Blood nasal and throat discharge
  • Green diarrhoea
  • Cyanoses
  • Oedemata in the head region, comb and wattles
  • Change of colour in the thighs and feed due to ecchymosis

In some cases of Avian Influenza, it can result in the death of the bird, therefore testing of the bird is advisable as quickly as possible.

Dear Customer,Vetlabs Logo

we would like to provide an update regarding ongoing market cost trends and their impact on our pricing.

Global market conditions have continued to drive sustained increases in direct costs, significantly affecting the entire supply chain. As a lot of the products supplied by Vetlab Supplies Ltd are polymer-based plastics derived from oil, fluctuations in oil prices and associated raw material costs have had a direct and considerable impact on production costs.

We have continued to make every effort to absorb these increases and minimise their effect on our customers, however, due to the ongoing nature of these issues, we have no option other than to implement an adjustment to our pricing & discounts on affected products from immediate effect.

Please note this will not apply to existing stock & will only be applied to new stock received at the increased price.

We would also like to emphasise that we will continue to closely monitor raw material and market cost developments. Should conditions improve, we will review our pricing accordingly and consider potential adjustments, including reductions where possible.

Thank You for your understanding.
