Early, Reliable Detection of Canine Kidney Decline
When a dog's kidney function is in question, get a clear, early indicator. Our quantitative Cystatin C test provides a sensitive result to detect and manage kidney disease before creatinine rises.

Canine kidney disease is a progressive condition where early detection is critical. The Tashikin Cystatin C Test provides a more sensitive and earlier indicator of declining renal function than traditional creatinine measurements. As a small protein, Cystatin C is a direct measure of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), allowing for timely intervention and more effective management of kidney health.
Your Path to Proactive Kidney Care:
Screen At-Risk Patients
Ideal for senior pets, pre-anesthetic screening, and breeds predisposed to renal conditions.
Get an Early Baseline
Establish a baseline Cystatin C value to detect subtle changes in kidney function before clinical signs appear.
Monitor Disease Progression
Perform serial testing to objectively monitor the patient's response to therapy and adjust management plans accordingly.

Prepare Sample
Prepare canine serum or plasma from a whole blood sample according to standard laboratory procedures.
Add Sample
Using a micropipette, add exactly 75µL of the serum or plasma into the sample well of the test cassette.
Add Buffer
Add 2 drops of the provided assay buffer into the same well and start the timer immediately.
Read Result
At 10 minutes, insert the cassette into the Tashikin FIA Analyzer to obtain the quantitative Cystatin C result.
Visualize and Track Renal Function Over Time
Managing chronic kidney disease requires careful monitoring. By plotting serial Cystatin C results in VetEx.ai, you create a clear, visual trend line of the patient’s renal function. This is invaluable for staging the disease, adjusting treatment protocols, and effectively communicating the patient's prognosis to a concerned owner.
