test-it IgG Foal 5 tests
Is the registration number of your country not listed? Then this product falls within the cascade control system.
Foals are in hypo-gamma-globulinema at birth. It is imperative that they drink and assimilate the mare’s colostrum for protection. This protection against pathogens consists largely in the foal’s intestinal absorption of the maternal Ig during the first hours after birth. This is the principle of transfer of passive immunity, essential to the survival of the foal.
Test Objective
The objective of this test is to determine the titer of maternal antibodies in the newborn foal. The IgG level is measured by immunochromatography solid phase (nitrocellulose) and is based on a semi-quantitative detection in foal’s whole blood, serum or plasma.
