Serology

  • Send ≥1 ml of serum per test or ≥3 ml blood.
  • Send serum only whenever possible. The submission of whole blood, even in separator tubes, often results in hemolysis and interference with some of the tests.
  • Identify the tubes properly, making sure there are matching animal IDs on the submission form and the tubes. Ship sera in racks or cardboard boxes with dividers.
  • Submit acute and convalescent sera together in cases where paired sample serology is needed.

 

*Equine Infectious Anemia:
