Neogen's EPM Testing Service detects S. neurona antibodies through the use of the Western Immunoblot. Most EPM-infected horses recover if the disease is diagnosed early and treated appropriately. A battery of standards encompassing both highly and mildly reactive samples. Reporting of nonspecific reactivity, which may indicate infections with related protozoa. Greater repeatability of results, because of a quantitative system.
Densitometry is used to compare sample reactivity to a standard curve.
Quality assurance is achieved by computer analysis of the standard curve before samples are analyzed. All results are double checked by hand to eliminate the possibility of computer errors. Competitive pricing with volume discounts. Total protein and cytology tests are offered to confirm or rule out disease possibilities. So are we.
