In addition, testing for inherited diseases (e.g., polycystic kidney disease, hip dysplasia, and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy) may be desirable for certain breeds and should be accomplished, where possible, before a queen or tom has reproduced. Queens of breeds with a high prevalence of blood ...
It may help your vet to detect underlying liver or kidney disease that might make it unsafe for your cat to have an anaesthetic procedure. Better to know that there is a problem before the pet has an anaesthetic than during one! Old cats in particular should have a pre-anaesthetic blood ...
Although low-molecular-weight Fab can diffuse into the tissue more easily through the blood vessels, the effect of neutralizing the antigen by the rapid removal via filtration of the kidney is impaired. Second, the half-life of Fab in vivo is less than that of F(ab')2, which results in...
