Co-infections with multiple tick-borne pathogens are common and can complicate a clinical picture. The Tashikin EHR-ANA-BAB Combo Test is a powerful tool for efficiently screening dogs for three of the most significant tick-borne diseases. This rapid, in-clinic test detects antibodies to Ehrlichia, Anaplasma, and Babesia, providing a comprehensive exposure history that is essential for diagnosing any dog with a fever, lethargy, anemia, or thrombocytopenia.
Your Path to a Comprehensive Tick Panel:
Diagnose Sick Dogs
The essential frontline panel for any dog presenting with non-specific signs of illness, especially with a history of tick exposure.
Perform Pre-Surgical Screens
Assess a patient's tick-borne disease status before anesthesia to identify underlying conditions that could increase procedural risk.
Screen At-Risk Populations
Incorporate into wellness exams for dogs in endemic areas or for routine screening of blood donors to ensure safety.

Collect Sample
Collect canine whole blood, or prepare serum/plasma, according to standard laboratory procedures.
Apply Sample
Using the provided dropper, add 1 drop (approx. 10µL) of the prepared sample into the sample well (S) of the test cassette.
Add Buffer
Add 2 drops of the provided assay buffer into the sample well immediately after the sample.
Read Results
Interpret the results for all three analyte strips at 10 minutes. A positive in any strip indicates exposure.
Map Regional Co-Infection Rates
Understanding the prevalence and overlap of tick-borne diseases is vital for preventative medicine. Logging combo test results in VetEx.ai helps build a detailed map of regional co-infection risks, empowering you with data to refine your prevention protocols and client education.
