Clinical Endocrinology Laboratory

The Clinical Endocrinology Laboratory is a non-profit, self-funded service unit, within the Department of Population Health and Reproduction that proudly serves veterinarians, owners and others managing all manner of species from a variety of local, national and international institutions including universities, zoos, research laboratories, and private practice. The lab continues a long and distinguished history of developing, running and interpreting hormonal assays, in particular reproductive hormones, for pregnancy and disease in males and females.

We now offer mass spectrometry measurement of progesterone/DHP ratios for the determination of placental support of pregnancy and as evidence for the safe removal of pregnant mares from progesterone supplementation. Please see the complete information and submission form.

Feline/Canine anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) testing is currently available. AMH testing is a safe, humane and cost-effective alternative to surgical exploration to determine spay status. Please see more information under anti-Mullerian Hormone Testing. The test may be submitted using our sample submission form.
