The MVista® Coccidioides quantitative EIA test aids in the diagnosis of coccidioidomycosis (especially in seronegative cases). Monitoring the Coccidioides antigen helps in some cases to determine when treatment can be stopped and to diagnose relapse.
The result is not intended to be used as the sole means for clinical diagnosis or patient management decisions. Clinical sensitivity for diagnosis in dogs with pathology proven coccidioidomycosis is low (<40%); therefore, antibody testing is preferred for initial screening. Cross-reactions are seen with histoplasmosis, blastomycosis, paracoccidioidomycosis. Sputolysin, sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide treatment degrade the analyte detected in the assay.
