The VMRD Foal IgG test simplifies horse-side measurement of IgG in neonatal foals, offering objective results and room temperature storage.
Measuring IgG level is an invaluable component of any neonatal foal exam for both sick and outwardly healthy foals. If a foal has not absorbed enough IgG from colostrum in the first hours of life, risk for serious infection will be high. Point-of-care measurement of IgG allows appropriate oral and/or intravenous therapy to be instituted in a timely manner, providing antibodies to help the foal fight off infections. Whole blood.
Our foal IgG test is not recommended to be read by eye, as it is difficult to determine a mid-range result. You should be able to detect if samples is very high or very low
