Name and Intended Use The CHEMICOS Bovine Pregnancy Rapid Test is a cutting-edge, rapid diagnostic tool designed to detect pregnancy-associated glycoproteins (PAGs) in the plasma (EDTA) or serum of cows and heifers. This test serves as a reliable marker for early pregnancy detection on farms.
General Information Accurate and timely pregnancy detection is crucial for modern bovine reproductive management programs. Early identification of non-pregnant (open) cows and heifers allows veterinarians and farmers to initiate faster rebreeding processes, thereby shortening the calving interval. This early detection maximizes new stock generation, milk production, and farm revenue. Confirming pregnancy during various gestation stages and at dry-off is economically significant. Beef producers can also check for pregnancy at multiple production stages. Traditionally, pregnancy detection has been performed through rectal palpation or transrectal ultrasound (TU). The CHEMICOS Bovine Pregnancy Test offers a method for precise pregnancy detection as early as 28 days post-breeding and throughout gestation, providing veterinarians, dairy farmers, and beef producers with a valuable tool for early pregnancy identification. The test is applicable ≥ 70 days post calving.
