Comparison of Speed ​​ProgesteroneTM to reference method

Speed ​​ProgesteroneTM is a rapid, quantitative immunochromatographic assay that can measure circulating progesterone through laser-induced fluorescence analysis.

The Speed ​​ProgesteroneTM test was validated for the measurement of circulating progesterone in dogs compared to the indirect chemiluminescence immunoassay method (CLEIA, IMMULITE® 2000, Siemens), performed in the laboratory.

Progesterone was measured in 165 canine blood samples collected under clinical conditions.

The correlation coefficient R2 is 0.93, indicating an excellent correlation between the two analysis systems.

Speed ​​ProgesteroneTM has an excellent correlation with the indirect chemiluminescence immunoassay method (IMMULITE® 2000, Siemens), validated in dogs for the progesterone assay.
