DALLAS-FORT WORTH, TX — June 26, 2026 — BioStone Scientific has launched two new AsurPure™ enzymatic assay kits for metabolic biomarker testing in bovine serum: the AsurPure™ β-Hydroxybutyrate (BHBA) Enzymatic Assay Kit and the AsurPure™ Non-Esterified Fatty Acids (NEFA) Enzymatic Assay Kit.
These laboratory-based tools are designed to support quantitative measurement of key metabolic biomarkers associated with dairy cow energy balance, nutritional status, and transition cow health monitoring.
During late gestation and early lactation, dairy cows often experience negative energy balance, accompanied by mobilization of body fat and changes in circulating metabolic markers. NEFA concentrations may rise during this period, while BHBA, a ketone body produced mainly by the liver from fatty acids when glucose supply is limited, is commonly monitored in relation to ketosis risk and metabolic status.
Together, these AsurPure™ enzymatic assay kits provide practical tools for laboratories, researchers, veterinarians, and animal health professionals seeking to evaluate important metabolic biomarkers in dairy cattle.
