Abstract
Early and accurate diagnosis of hypoglycemia and hyperketonemia is helpful in the diagnosis and treatment of ketosis in periparturient dairy cattle. The results of a preliminary study recently indicated that the glucose concentration [glue] and β-OH butyrate concentration [BHB] measured by the Precision Xtra meter was impacted by sample temperature when temperature <89.6° (< 32°C). The objective of this study was to fully characterize the effects of sample temperature on the accuracy of the Precision Xtra® for measuring [glue] and [BHB].
