Mycoplasma is the smallest known prokaryote. It is a highly pleomorphic and the smallest cell - type microorganism without a cell wall, and it widely exists in the mucous membranes of animals such as dogs and cats. After a cat is infected with Mycoplasma, it often shows respiratory and ocular symptoms, specifically as follows:

Respiratory symptoms: Feline Mycoplasma infection is commonly seen in upper respiratory tract infections (URI), manifested as symptoms such as sneezing, conjunctivitis, lacrimation, and pneumonia. Clinically, the symptoms of feline Mycoplasma infection may heal spontaneously within two to four weeks. However, it sometimes co - occurs with other viral infections (such as feline herpesvirus and feline calicivirus).

Ocular symptoms: Conjunctivitis is a prominent feature of feline Mycoplasma infection, accompanied by a large amount of ocular and nasal secretions.

The clinical diagnosis of feline Mycoplasma mainly involves collecting samples such as eyelid swabs, nasal swabs, or oropharyngeal swabs from suspected affected cats for cytological examination, bacterial culture, or detection with diagnostic reagents. Among them, rapid diagnostic reagents have the advantages of high sensitivity and specificity, quick result - issuing, and simple interpretation, and can be used as a diagnostic basis for the early stage of feline Mycoplasma infection, which plays an important role in the discovery and prevention of the disease.

The SUNSHINY MED Feline Mycoplasma Immunofluorescence Detection Kit launched by Shanghai Yaoshuoling Technology Co., Ltd. is easy to operate, provides rapid and accurate results, can promptly assist clinical veterinarians in formulating treatment plans, and improve the quality of life of affected cats.
