VET-SAA ‘Eiken’ is a latex agglutination turbidimetric immunoassay (LTIA) for clinical chemistry analyzers.
- Species applicability: The reagent is reactive with following species: Horse, Cat, Dog, Cattle, Raccoon dog, Shetland pony, Grant's Zebra, Lion, Cheetah, Blackbuck, Water buffalo, Red Deer, Pig, Bonnet macaque, Crested macaque, Toque macaque, Patas monkey, De Brazza's guenon, Tufted capuchin, Squirrel monkey, Lar Gibbon, Ring-tailed lemur, Rabbit (In-house data)
- Analyzers applicability: VET-SAA ‘Eiken’ is designed to be used on general clinical chemistry analyzers. About application settings, please contact us.
SAA is one of the major APPs that is conserved in many animal species.
Inflammation response can be clearly detected. Also, SAA concentration is considered to reflect healing condition.
