Test Description
Used to further evaluate gastrointestinal signs where malassimilation and maldigestion are suspected. Additional measurement of TLI is recommended to ensure the most accurate interpretation of results.

Interferences: Previous vitamin supplementation may cause interference (and elevated concentrations).
