Die Sabervet Bovine Pregnancy Rapid Test represents a breakthrough in cattle reproduction management, detecting Pregnancy-Associated Glycoproteins (PAGs) with laboratory accuracy directly on the farm. This innovative diagnostic tool enables early bovine pregnancy detection from 28 days post-breeding, providing dairy and beef operations with reliable results in just 15 minutes.
As a leading veterinary diagnostics manufacturer, Antigenne has developed this test to address the critical need for accurate, on-site cow pregnancy detection that traditional methods like rectal palpation and ultrasound cannot provide in early gestation stages. The test detects specific biomarkers that appear in peripheral blood shortly after conception.
Pregnancy-Associated Glycoproteins (PAGs) are specific proteins secreted by trophoblast cells of the embryo that appear in the maternal bloodstream shortly after conception. Unlike traditional pregnancy detection methods that require specialized equipment or expertise, PAG detection provides objective, biochemical evidence of pregnancy that can be detected as early as 28 days post-breeding.
Die Sabervet test utilizes a double-antibody sandwich system on a microporous membrane that specifically captures PAGs present in blood samples. When PAGs are present, they bind with gold-labeled antibodies and then with capture antibodies on the test line, producing a visible color reaction. This mechanism ensures high specificity and eliminates cross-reactivity with other bovine proteins.
This scientific advancement represents a significant improvement over traditional methods, providing consistent results regardless of operator experience. As a reliable veterinary diagnostics supplier, Antigenne has optimized this technology for field use while maintaining laboratory-level accuracy that dairy and beef operations can depend on for crucial breeding decisions.
The economic impact of efficient bovine pregnancy detection cannot be overstated. Each day a cow remains open represents significant financial loss through extended calving intervals, reduced milk production, and unnecessary maintenance costs. The Sabervet Bovine Pregnancy Rapid Test addresses these challenges with multiple practical advantages.
Early detection at 28 days post-breeding allows producers to promptly identify non-pregnant animals and re-breed them during subsequent estrus cycles. This significantly reduces average days open and calving intervals, optimizing herd productivity. The test's 15-minute turnaround enables same-day decision making, unlike laboratory tests that may require days for results.
The test accommodates multiple sample types including whole blood (EDTA), plasma, and serum, providing flexibility for different farm setups and sampling protocols. Properly stored samples maintain stability, allowing testing to be scheduled conveniently without compromising accuracy. This adaptability makes the test suitable for various operation sizes and management styles.
Proper implementation of the Sabervet cow pregnancy test ensures optimal performance and reliable results. The test should be performed at room temperature (15-30°C) and protected from extreme humidity, which can affect membrane function. Always inspect the foil pouch for damage before use and perform the test immediately after opening to maintain reagent stability.
Sample collection follows standard veterinary protocols. Whole blood samples should be collected using EDTA anticoagulant and tested within 24 hours if refrigerated at 2-8°C. Serum and plasma samples offer longer storage options, with frozen samples (-20°C or below) maintaining stability for extended periods while avoiding repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Results should be read at exactly 15 minutes, with tests interpreted after 20 minutes considered invalid. The clear visual readout requires no specialized interpretation skills, with the presence of both control and test lines indicating pregnancy. As with all diagnostic tests, questionable results should be verified through additional testing methods and clinical evaluation.
For dairy operations, the test enables strategic culling decisions based on reproductive performance, allowing replacement with more fertile animals. Beef operations benefit through optimized artificial insemination programs and natural service sires, ensuring maximum conception rates during breeding seasons. The test also facilitates early detection of embryonic loss, alerting managers to potential herd health issues.
The portability and simplicity of the test make it invaluable for large-scale operations where moving animals to handling facilities for ultrasound examination creates significant stress and labor costs. On-site testing minimizes animal handling and integrates seamlessly with existing herd health protocols, providing immediate information for management decisions.
Die Sabervet Bovine Pregnancy Rapid Test exemplifies the commitment of Antigene as a leading animal diagnostics manufacturer to developing practical solutions for modern livestock production. This test represents the evolution of bovine pregnancy detection from subjective assessment to objective, science-based decision making.
For operations seeking to improve reproductive efficiency and profitability, the Sabervet test offers an unparalleled combination of early detection, accuracy, and convenience.

Economic Impact and Herd Management Applications
The financial benefits of implementing the Sabervet Bovine Pregnancy Rapid Test extend throughout the production cycle. By identifying non-pregnant animals early, producers can reduce the number of days open by 21-30 days per animal, significantly improving reproductive efficiency and annual calving rates. This directly translates to increased milk production and more calves weaned per year.For dairy operations, the test enables strategic culling decisions based on reproductive performance, allowing replacement with more fertile animals.
