A targeted faecal test for the detection of Salmonella bacteria in birds, with optional serotyping for positive samples.
The Salmonella Test is a focused laboratory analysis designed to detect the presence of Salmonella bacteria in avian faecal samples. Salmonella can cause intestinal illness and can also pose a zoonotic risk, making accurate diagnosis essential for both bird and handler health.
If the sample tests positive for Salmonella, a serotype identification will be performed to determine the specific strain. Please note, serotyping requires additional processing time of approximately 8 weeks.
Sample Required: Faecal sample
Turnaround Time: Standard for initial detection; 8 weeks for serotype confirmation if positive.
A reliable diagnostic tool for avian infection detection, disease monitoring, and biosecurity management, ensuring the early identification and control of Salmonella infections.
