Description
Milk fever or subclinical hypocalcemia (SCH) is a major problem with dairy cows. Total calcium levels in the blood of cows decrease after lactation. By measuring ionized calcium levels in the blood directly from the cow’s side, treatment can be started earlier and is more effective. The new LAQUAtwin CA-11C has been specially developed for the measurement of ionized calcium in the cow’s blood. Ionized calcium more accurately reflects the current situation of calcemic blood compared to total blood calcium, as it is equal to the freely available calcium ions.
