UNOR™ Pregnancy (Relaxin)Screening Kit For Dogs/Cats(RLN Test)
Basic Info
【Principle of Inspection】
This product utilizes immunochromatographic assay to rapidly screen for relaxin in canine serum and plasma samples.Relaxin is a multi-brain hormone synthesized and secreted by the corpus luteum and placenta during pregnancy. Its concentration gradually increases with the progression of pregnancy and rapidly decreases after parturition. Therefore, this hormone is widely used as an auxiliary diagnostic tool for early pregnancy in animals.The detection limit of this product is 15 days after mating, Due to individual variations, if a false negative result occurs due to testing too early, retesting should be conducted after 1 week.

2. Place the test card on a level surface.
3. Using a micropipette, transfer one drop of canine blood sample (serum/plasma ≈ 5μl, whole blood ≈ 10μl) vertically into the sample well.
4. Add 2 drops (≈ 20-25μl per drop) of buffer solution to the sample well. Start the timer.
5. Read the results within 10-15 minutes. Results read after 15 minutes are invalid.
2. Negative: Indicates the possibility of the absence of relaxin in the sample. Regular testing is advised.
