Abstract
We performed analytical validation of an automated ferric-reducing ability of plasma (FRAP) assay in the serum of dogs. Intra- and interassay precision, accuracy, detection limit, and effects of hemolysis and lipemia were evaluated. Intra- and interassay coefficients of variation were <1% and <13%, respectively. The assay showed a high correlation with a FRAP assay described previously, and results were linear when serial sample dilutions were tested. The detection limit was lower than the values observed in sera from healthy dogs; decreased serum FRAP was found in dogs with leishmaniosis. Lipemia and hemolysis caused a significant increase in the results of the assay.
