    2-4 days.
    Container
    Send on ice to keep cold.

  • Add‑on CBC

    Test Code
    ADD03
    Results:
    24 hours.
    Specimen
    1.0 mL EDTA whole blood in lavender top tube.
    Test Description
    Includes WBC, RBC, Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, MCV, MCH, MCHC, Platelet count and Differential: Percent and Absolute Neutrophils, Bands, Lymphocytes, Monocytes, Eosinophils, and Basophils.

    Assessment of the quantity and morphology of the erythrocytes, leukocytes and platelets.

    Interferences: Marked hemolysis.

  • Adiponectin (Equine)

    Test Code
    S14464
    Results:
    3-5 days.
    Specimen
    1.0 mL serum in red top or non-additive tube.
    Test Description
    Adiponectin is a key regulator of glucose and lipid metabolism and has insulin sensitizing, anti‑inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Unlike leptin, low adiponectin is strongly associated with insulin dysregulation and laminitis risk (not just obesity). Stress/feed/grain access prior to sampling do not impact adiponectin values and therefore may be a more reliable indicator of metabolic status and laminitis risk than single insulin measurements in some cases.
