Ultrasound Pregnancy Tester is an invaluable help in modern breeding. The detector provides maximum help for breeders, advisers and veterinarians in making an accurate diagnosis that confirms or excludes pregnancy.
Benefits:
- 1st Line- Accuracy- close to 100%,
- Early diagnosis of pregnancy helps to separate pregnant females from non pregnant females
- Improves profitability.
- Early diagnosis helps organise the breeding programme.
The principle of operation:
The detector determines pregnancy by locating amniotic fluid in the uterus. It uses the phenomenon of ultrasonic wave reflection. When pressed to the animal’s skin, the probe sends an ultrasound beam which is reflected from the uterine horn filled with fluid and returns to the probe, causing a change of signal generated by the device. The optimum day of the examination depends on the animal species and is calculated from the date of mating or insemination. It is necessary to repeat the test at an optimum date if a very early pregnancy was checked.
Testing can begin:
- Ewes: As early as 40 days, the optimal time to test is between 60 – 90 days
- Goats: As early as 40 days, the optimal time to test is between 60 – 90 days
- Alpacas/Llamas: As early as 30 days, the optimal time to test is between 50 – 80 days (please note it is only 50% accurate on Alpacas/Llamas)
