Alertys OnFarm Pregnancy Test
Pregnancy testing run by farmers earlier, reliably and on your schedule!
When a cow becomes pregnant she produces pregnancy-associated glycoproteins (PAGs). These PAGs are only produced in the presence of a live embryo of fetus.
The Alertys OnFarm Pregnancy Test detects (PAGs) in whole blood (EDTA) as early as 28 days post-breeding and 60 days post-calving.
