14 Luteinizing Hormone Test Kit WITNESS HEARTWORM WITNESS LH WITNESS RELAXIN

15 Luteinizing Hormone Test Kit ACCURATE. AFFORDABLE. SIMPLE. PREDICTING WHELPING DATES Determining LH surge is more precise in predicting when litter will arrive, knowing whelping normally occurs 65 +/ 2 days after LH surge. 1 DETERMINING OVARIAN (SPAY) STATUS WITNESS LH helps determine canine and feline spay status. NO REFRIGERATION At room temperature, WITNESS LH has an 18-month shelf life (from the date of manufacture). EASY TO USE Demonstrated Rapid Immuno Migration (RIM ) technology allows for an easy, streamlined process. Needs only three drops of sample (serum only). RAPID RESULTS Accurate results in approximately 20 minutes. WITNESS CPV WITNESS FeLV WITNESS HEARTWORM WITNESS LH WITNESS RELAXIN

16 Luteinizing Hormone Test Kit DETERMINE OVULATION TIMING WITNESS LH provides a precise way to determine ovulation timing. 2 The optimal time to breed is realized through determination of the LH surge. The canine LH surge usually occurs between days three and twelve after observable signs of heat (proestral bleeding) and lasts approximately 24 hours. Ovulation occurs two days after LH surge. The ova then require another two to three days to mature to the point they can support fertilization (see Figure 1). The canine fertile period falls between days four and seven after the canine LH surge, with the most fertile days being five and six (the day of the LH surge is counted as Day 0). Canine Fertile Period EVENTS LH SURGE OVULATION OVA MATURE PEAK FERTILITY WHAT COULD BE SIMPLER? Figure 1 proestral bleeding behavioral estrus diestrus Negative Test Line 2 is not evident or lighter than Control Line 3 Apply 3 drops of sample (serum only) using the pipette Wait 20 minutes Positive Test Line 2 is darker than or similar to Control Line 3 For more information, visit Animalhealthdx.com.

18 Canine and Feline Pregnancy Test Kit THE EASY WAY TO DETECT CANINE/FELINE PREGNANCY EASY TO INTERPRET Simple-to-understand results EASY TO USE Demonstrated: Rapid Immuno Migration (RIM ) technology allows for an easy, efficient process. Needs only 2 drops of plasma or serum (no whole blood) and 2 drops of buffer. RAPID RESULTS Accurate results in approximately 10 minutes NO REFRIGERATION Room temperature storage; 18-month shelf life (from the date of manufacture) SIMPLY A SMART CHOICE FOR POINT-OF-CARE DIAGNOSTIC SOLUTIONS SO YOUR CLIENTS CAN REST EASY Experience the demonstrated accuracy, affordability, and simplicity of WITNESS RELAXIN test kits. WITNESS HEARTWORM WITNESS LH WITNESS RELAXIN

19 Canine and Feline Pregnancy Test Kit WITNESS RELAXIN may detect pregnancy as early as 20 days post-lh surge in canines and 20 days after mating in felines. Factors such as breed, size of the canine/feline, and litter size may influence the level of serum relaxin. Although approximately 80% of pregnant canines/felines are detected between 20 and 28 days, some may not be detected as positive until day 31. Negative results should be retested at least seven days later. 1 Relaxin is secreted primarily by the placenta and is a reliable indicator of pregnancy. Levels of relaxin remain elevated throughout gestation and decline quickly following whelping/queening or abortion.
