DHI Cooperative is now a certified BioPRYN® Lab
BioPRYN® (Pregnancy Ruminant Yes/No) is a pregnancy detection procedure in cattle. It measures the presence of Pregnancy-Specific Protein B (PSPB) in the blood circulation of the animal. The PSPB is a protein produced by the placenta of the growing fetus.
BioPRYN® begins with collection of a blood sample from the animal. The samples are then shipped to a laboratory where an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is performed. Results may be delivered via e-mail, fax, mail, or via phone call.
The livestock producer or veterinarian should draw blood samples from the animal(s) at the correct time after breeding (30 days in cattle) or 90 days post calving. This timing ensures the accuracy of the BioPryn test.
For those that already have blood collection supplies, all that is needed is the submission form: Click here to download form.
