Canine C-Reactive Protein (CRP)
Concept:
◆ CRP is a typical non-specific inflammatory marker in dogs. Its concentration increases rapidly and significantly during trauma, infection, inflammation and surgery. CRP is the preferred marker for identifying bacterial and viral infections.
◆ CRP response was not affected by radiotherapy, chemotherapy, antibiotics, immune agents, glucocorticoid therapy and individual differences, but was positively correlated with the severity of inflammation. It can most objectively indicate the degree of inflammation and the recovery of treatment in dogs.
◆ The test results only need 5 minutes to reflect the inflammation in dogs.
