title: [The Seralyzer dry-reagent system and its applicability to veterinary practice].
abstract: This report is an assessment of clinical chemistry dry-reagent methodology for veterinary use. A portable reflectance photometer and dry-reagent strips were used to measure total bilirubin, glucose, creatinine, creatine-kinase and urea in equine, bovine and canine sera. The following aspects of performance are reported: within run variation determined on animal samples, between run variation using a commercial control serum, correlation between dry-reagent and wet-reagent methodology on clinical samples. Results of the above analytes have shown a satisfactory precision and indicate an excellent correlation with the reference method of our laboratory. Minimal technical requirements, simplicity, reproducibility and accuracy comparable with wet-reagent methods are the technical advantages of this system.
