This is an FIA immunofluorescence assay reagent card used to detect Canine cortisol (cCortisol). Immunofluorescence technology has the characteristics of high specificity, high sensitivity, and intuitive results. Utilizing this technology and the FLASHTEST FIA detection platform, we can detect whether your beloved pet carries Canine cortisol (cCortisol) through this small card.
The cortisol level in dogs can be influenced by various factors, such as the circadian rhythm, stress state, diseases, etc. Under normal circumstances, the cortisol level of dogs fluctuates to a certain extent throughout the day, usually being higher in the morning and lower in the evening.
Clinical application:
Diagnosis of Adrenocortical Hyperfunction (Cushing's Syndrome):
When dogs show symptoms such as polydipsia, polyuria, abdominal distension, symmetrical hair loss, etc., detecting cortisol levels is helpful for diagnosing Cushing's syndrome. If the cortisol level continues to increase and loses the normal circadian rhythm, it may indicate excessive secretion of cortisol by the adrenal cortex.
For example, an obese cortisol test dogs shows symptoms such as thinner skin, susceptibility to infection, and muscle weakness. The detection of cCOR reveals a significantly increased level. Combined with other examination results, it is diagnosed as Cushing's syndrome.
Assess the Stress State:
When dogs are exposed to stress stimuli such as surgery, pain, and fear, the cortisol level will increase. Detecting cCOR can help assess the stress level of dogs so that corresponding measures can be taken to reduce the adverse effects of stress on dogs.
For instance, a dog shows restlessness and loss of appetite during hospitalization. The detection of cCOR reveals a relatively high level, indicating that the dog is in a strong stress state and measures such as soothing and environmental optimization are needed.
