Bovine Calcium Meters
For the accurate measurement of blood ionised calcium.
Sub Clinical Hypocalcemia (SCH) is a significant and underdiagnosed problem in dairy cows affecting recovery, yield and ongoing complications and condition. With diagnosis by rapid measurement of ionised calcium levels directly cow side, treatment can start sooner and is more effective. The new LAQUAtwin CA-11C has been specially developed for accurate cow side measurement of ionised calcium in blood.

Milk fever, or Sub Clinical Hypocalcemia (SCH) is a significant problem with dairy cows. Total calcium levels in the cows’ blood drop after lactation. By measuring the ionized calcium levels of the blood directly cow side, the treatment can start sooner and is more effective. The new LAQUAtwin CA-11C has been specially developed for cow side measurement of ionized calcium in blood. Ionized calcium reflects more accurately the current calcemic blood situation compared to total blood calcium as it equals the free available calcium ions.
