Product catalog summary
Overview
PortaCheck, Inc. provides on-farm testing solutions for the dairy industry, focusing on improving milk quality and production through early detection of health issues in animals. Their products are designed to be fast, accurate, and affordable, contributing to increased production and profit.
Milk Quality Testing
PortaCheck offers two versions of tests for cows to monitor milk quality and detect mastitis and somatic cell count (SCC). The tests are available in 45-minute and 5-minute formats, allowing for flexibility in sampling. A 2-minute dipstick test measures LDH enzyme levels, providing early warning of udder infections.
Ketosis and Glucose Screening
The BHBCheck Plus system offers accurate and affordable testing for blood ketone and glucose levels, providing results in seconds. It helps detect sub-clinical ketosis and monitors glucose levels to identify negative energy balance. The PortaBHB milk ketone test provides semi-quantitative results in one minute.
IgG Passive Transfer Screening
A simple lateral flow test is available for screening IgG passive transfer in calves, using whole blood with results in 10 minutes. This test is affordable and convenient for on-farm use.
