GAMMA-CHECK-B (10 TESTS PER KIT):
This is a rapid and cost-effective screening test for calves as a semi-quantitative means of measuring the calf ’s IgG levels. It is based on the ability of glutaraldehyde to cause a clot in presence of IgG. Within 5 minutes, using either whole blood, plasma or serum, it can be determined if a calve has at least 800 mg/dL of IgG.

GAMMA-CHECK-C (10 TESTS PER KIT):
This is a cost effective, semi-quantitative test for screening the mare’s colostrum. Clot formation in 10 minutes or less predicts at least 3800 mg/dl of IgG. Only a colostrum sample and the kit is required.

GAMMA-CHECK-E (5 or 10 TESTS PER KIT):
This is a cost effective, semi-quantitative test that can be done foal side. It is based on the ability of glutaraldehyde to cause a clot in presence of IgG. Within 5 minutes, using either whole blood or serum, it can be determined if a foal has at least 800 mg/dl of IgG.

GELMATE (10 test kit)
Test for the detection of acute and chronic inflammation in farm animals. The higher the concentration of inflammatory proteins (mainly gammaglobulin and fibrinogen) the quicker the formation of a solid clot when blood is added to the reagent in the GELMATE tubes. If a firm clot occurs within 5 minutes, then significant inflammation is present. If a firm clot appears within 5 to10 minutes, then moderate inflammation is present.

PREDICT-A-FOAL: (15 TEST KITS)
Cost effective method to predict the foaling date of the mare. Add 0.6 mL of mare’s milk/secretion to a collection vial containing a reagent solution. The test tube is gently inverted to ensure mixing. After one minute, the test strip which has five boxes on it is dipped into the tube. The number of boxes that have changed colour, will determine the percentage chance of imminent foaling. For example if 3 boxes have changed colour = 40 % chance, 4 boxes = 80 % chance, 5 boxes = 90 % chance of imminent foaling. Testing should begin about 10 days before the expected foaling date.

EquiPlas (formally known as Polymune): is equine plasma licensed for the treatment of failure of passive transfer (FPT) in the equine neonate. The minimum IgG level is 1500mg/dl and one 950mL bag will increase a healthy foal’s circulating IgG level by about 250 mg/dl. A Blood Administration kit is highly recommended.
