Bionote announced the release of its new D-dimer kit packaging in a 5-test format for its Vcheck immunodiagnostic equipment used in veterinary clinics.D-dimer is one of the degradation products formed when fibrin clots dissolve during the blood coagulation process. It serves as an indicator of the ongoing process of blood clotting and subsequent recovery in the body following tissue or vascular damage.This marker can be utilized as a valuable diagnostic tool for various diseases such as tumors, sepsis, pancreatitis, and immune-mediated diseases.
Particularly, D-dimer testing, when used alongside other coagulation tests such as platelet count, PT (Prothrombin Time), and APTT (Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time), can significantly aid in the diagnosis of thrombosis and Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC).
A representative from Bionote stated, "Compared to the existing 10-test kits, the 5-test format is advantageous for small clinics or environments with fewer emergency cases, making it more accessible. We anticipate that this will facilitate broader use of D-dimer products in veterinary hospitals, expanding the scope of coagulation testing."
