PLI (Pancreatic Lipase Immunoreactivity)

LABOKLIN Service ID: 1230

Material

serum 0.5 ml

Method

ELISA

Duration

1 day

Remark

  • Detection of specific pancreatic lipase in suspected pancreatitis. The determination of pancreatic lipase in the serum of dogs and cats is considered to be the most sensitive non-invasive marker for the diagnosis of pancreatitis. As part of an inflammatory reaction, the pancreatic acinar cells are destroyed leading to an increase in the pancreatic lipase concentration in the serum.
  • If possible, 12 hours of fasting is recommended.
