The PregCheck Service Offers Non-Invasive Pregnancy Diagnosis
Managing the reproductive cycle for your herd.
From timely breeding to pregnancy confirmation to successful calving, PregCheck is a critical component for today’s dairy farms. The service is non-invasive and hassle free by testing samples from milk recording.
The milk pregnancy test is based on ELISA technology and detects the presence of Pregnancy Associated Glycoproteins (PAGs) in the milk sample. The CIS PregCheck service is offered without any contracts keeping it simple to use and you can access results on the herd management programme YourHerd and MobileHerd app.

- Identifies open animals from 28 days after service and 60 days after calving
