Loose Stools, Diarrhea, or Worms in Your Pet's Poop?
Intestinal parasites are one of the most common — and most treatable — health issues in dogs and cats. The Kedi Labs Basic Fecal Parasite Screen + Giardia ELISA combines traditional microscopy with targeted Giardia antigen testing to detect the parasites most commonly causing GI problems in pets.
What's Included
| Test Component | Method | What It Detects |
|---|---|---|
| Fecal Ova & Parasite (O&P) Exam | Microscopy | Roundworms, hookworms, whipworms, coccidia, and other parasite eggs and organisms. |
| Giardia ELISA | Antigen Test | Detects Giardia antigen — one of the most common causes of pet diarrhea, frequently missed by microscopy alone. |
| Complete Collection Kit | — | Everything needed for easy, mess-free at-home fecal collection. |
| Free FedEx Priority Overnight Shipping | — | Results within 24 hours of lab arrival. |
Sample Requirements
Fecal: Collect a grape-sized fecal sample using the supplies in your kit.
Pro Tip: If your pet's symptoms include persistent diarrhea, mucus, or blood in stool, consider upgrading to the Parasite Detect PCR Panel for molecular-level detection.
