Milk Ketone Test for BHB in Cow Milk

DESCRIPTION

This reliable on-farm test can be used to detect subclinical ketosis in individual cows before it progresses and causes both harm to your cows and profits. This test specifically tests and quantifies BHB, a common ketone that is formed during subclinical ketosis.

This semiquantitative dipstick test can simply be dipped into fresh milk, shaken, and compared to the provided color chart after just one minute.

Instructions for use:

Remove one test strip from the vial
Squirt milk directly from the cow’s teat onto the test strip OR collect a milk sample in a clean container and mix. If you use a container, dip the test pad into the milk.
Remove the test strip and shake off excess liquid
Wait one minute and compare to the color chart

Store at room temperature (36˚F – 77˚F) and refrigerate whenever possible.

Note: Avoid using test strips that have discolored after extended storage. The reagent pad on unused test strips should be yellow.
