The Preg D kit operates on the detection of metabolites influenced by embryonic growth. Unlike traditional blood-based kits, which often require invasive methods, urine testing-based Preg D ensures a humane and stress-free process for animals. Unlike kits based on PAGs that demand a cold chain for storage, Preg D requires no refrigeration, enabling samples to be processed up to 24 hours after collection at room temperature.
