1. Prepare Sample
Collect appropriate feline respiratory samples (e.g., oropharyngeal, nasal, conjunctival swabs) and perform nucleic acid extraction following kit instructions.
2. Prepare Reaction
Combine extracted nucleic acid with the provided PCR master mix and pathogen-specific probe/primer sets.
3. Run PCR
Load prepared reactions into a compatible real-time PCR instrument and initiate the optimized thermal cycling protocol.
4. Analyze Results
Interpret amplification curves and Ct values using the instrument's software to determine the presence or absence of target pathogens.
