UdderCheck detects the enzyme LDH through the milk and indicates the risk of udder infection. Because LDH rises much earlier than the cell count, it is an excellent marker for the early detection of an infection. Moreover, LDH is not as sensitive to other influences as stress, lactation stage and nutrition, in contrast to the cell count. You can now take earlier measures against a starting infection with mint or homeopathic products. Uddercheck is a cost-effective solution compared to many cell count tests.
LDH enzyme
The lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) test has also been mentioned by the KNMvD as a suitable alternative and offers a number of advantages. LDH is an enzyme that is produced at an early stage
as part of the immune response to inflammation and is therefore an early indicator of and for the severity of tissue damage. This has already been confirmed in many veterinary journals and by universities.
Instructions
Dip the test strip in a milk sample (of fifteen minutes or put together). Wait 2 minutes and compare with the color chart.
Restricted use of antibiotics
