These reagents are now available, joining the lineup of testing reagents especially for use with the immunoassay measurement device Vcheck V200, and make it possible to take quantitative measurements of pancreas-specific lipase with a compact device. The Vcheck Test cPL and fPL reagents measure pancreas-specific lipase, which is considered the best blood marker for pancreatitis in canines or felines. Among the registered regulated veterinary medicinal products available in Japan, the Vcheck V200 is the first able to quantitatively measure pancreas-specific lipase with a compact device. (According to our research in November 2024.)
In addition, by taking cPL and the pre-existing Vcheck test reagent cCRP measurements simultaneously for canines, or fPL and the pre-existing Vcheck test reagent fSAA for felines, responses to treatments for pancreatitis and any exacerbation of the disease can be evaluated in more detail by using the Vcheck V200.
