Questions

Why is SAA the main inflammation marker in horses?

Equine serum amyloid A rises within hours of an inflammatory stimulus and falls quickly once it resolves, so a value repeated daily tracks the response to treatment more closely than a white-cell count.

Do the equine PCR kits run on standard instruments?

Yes. They run on any real-time PCR instrument with the required fluorescence channels, including the 16, 48 and 96-well analysers in the catalogue.

Are samples shipped or run on site?

Both. Yards close to a laboratory send samples; yards that need a same-day answer run the quantitative markers on a benchtop reader at the practice.
