Candida Albicans Rapid Antigen Test for Birds

Candida Albicans Antigen Test is a rapid screening test designed to help detect Candida albicans antigen in birds. Candida is an opportunistic yeast organism commonly associated with sour crop, crop stasis, delayed crop emptying, gastrointestinal imbalance, and secondary fungal overgrowth in compromised birds.

Candida infections are more commonly seen in young birds, hand-reared chicks, immunocompromised birds, birds experiencing gastrointestinal stress, and birds receiving prolonged medication or supportive care. Clinical signs may include lethargy, reduced appetite, regurgitation, vomiting, slow crop emptying, fluffy feathers, weight loss, and abnormal crop contents.

Suitable for parrots, hand-reared chicks, pigeons, aviary birds, backyard poultry, waterfowl, and wildlife rehabilitation cases, this rapid antigen assay may be used as part of broader avian disease investigation and supportive care assessment.

This listing is priced per individual rapid test and not for the full manufacturer box.

Test features include:

  • Rapid detection of Candida albicans antigen
  • Simple and easy-to-use format
  • Results available within approximately 5 - 10 minutes
  • Useful supportive screening tool for crop and gastrointestinal disease investigation
