In an effort to always provide optimum laboratory results, the Texas A&M Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Laboratory (TVMDL) clinical pathology laboratories recently completed a large study to update the reference intervals in several panels for adult sheep and goats. Providing accurate, validated, current reference intervals is essential for appropriate interpretation of laboratory results.
If you have any questions on the new reference intervals or services offer by TVMDL, please do not hesitate to contact the laboratory at 979-845-3414.
The new reference intervals can be seen in the following clinical pathology tests:
Chemistry Profile – Ruminant (1141)
CBC – Livestock (1134)
Energy Profile (1168)
Liver Profile (1183)
Beta-Hydroxybutyrate (1123)
