Default Where to find virus test strips in EU?

I think the title says everything, does anyone know where I can get virus test strips at an affordable price in the EU?

I have a Phrag with a worrying ring pattern on one leaf. I got it as a young plant several years ago and it's in bud right now for the first time. It was a bit expensive so I don't want to toss it without a confirmation....

Edit :I will contact the national plant health laboratory where I worked some years ago, and see if they'll do tests for non commercial clients (their registration form seems to be only for companies...). A combined orchid virus ELISA only costs 4.40€ so I hope I can send leaf material there...

Regabio ships to the EU also. If you don't need 50 tests, maybe you can find someone to share the order with. (Since each test is packaged separately, easy to divide up)

Personally, I would not worry about that particular leaf, looks more like something took a bite. But as I mentioned in my other post, having some test kits handy is a good thing, and they do have good shelf life.
