ACUVET ELISA bovine Hp

Haptoglobin is a major acute phase protein in cattle. It is a very sensitive and fast responder biomarker used to detect and monitor inflammation or infection, even subclinical conditions. Monitoring haptoglobin can enable early detection of diseases such as metritis, mastitis or bovine respiratory disease, for a prompt intervention that can reduce disease incidence on the farm. It also provides a quantitative and objective measure of the on-farm health-and-welfare status of animals. Our kits provide a species-specific, sensitive and well validated method to test with confidence. Unlike the colorimetric method our test is not affected by hemolysis. Our ELISA test is more sensitive than the turbidimetric method, being appropriate to measure haptoglobin not only in serum but also in milk, where it is a biomarker of mastitis.
