Biochemistry

Sodium, Serum

Serum sodium measures sodium, the main body salt that controls water balance. Levels can change with dehydration, vomiting, diarrhoea, or kidney and hormone disease.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain) (2 mL)
Report time: Same day to 24 hours

₹180

Biochemistry

Triglycerides

Triglycerides are fats carried in the blood. High levels can be seen after a meal, or with hormone disease, pancreas problems or fat-handling disorders.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain) (2 mL)
Report time: Same day to 24 hours

₹350

Biochemistry

Urea

Blood urea is a waste product made when the body breaks down protein, and healthy kidneys remove it. High levels can point to kidney disease or dehydration.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain) (2 mL)
Report time: Same day to 24 hours

₹180

Biochemistry

Uric Acid

Uric acid is a waste product of protein breakdown that the kidneys pass out in urine. Raised blood levels may be seen with reduced kidney function or some other metabolic problems.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain) (2 mL)
Report time: Same day to 24 hours

₹180

Biochemistry

LDH (Lactate Dehydrogenase)

LDH is an enzyme found in many tissues, including muscle, heart, liver and red blood cells. High levels show that cells have been damaged but not which organ is affected.

Serum

Sample: Serum (3 mL)
Report time: Same day to 24 hours

₹700

Biochemistry

Bile Acids (Fasting & Post-prandial)

A bile acids test measures bile acids in two blood samples, taken after a fast and about two hours after a meal, to see how well the liver clears them. It can help your vet look for liver problems and shunts, blood vessels that bypass the liver, in dogs and cats.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain)
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Biochemistry

Blood Lactate

A blood lactate test measures lactate, a substance that builds up when body tissues do not get enough oxygen. It can help a vet judge how serious shock, severe infection or a sudden belly crisis is in dogs, cats, cows and buffaloes.

Fluoride plasma or heparinised blood

Sample: Fluoride plasma or heparinised blood
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Biochemistry

Beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) - Blood Ketones

A BHB test measures beta-hydroxybutyrate, the main ketone in the blood, which rises when the body burns fat for energy. It is commonly used to screen cows and buffaloes for ketosis around calving and to help assess diabetic ketoacidosis in dogs and cats.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain)
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Biochemistry

NEFA (Non-Esterified Fatty Acids)

A NEFA test measures non-esterified fatty acids, the fats released from body fat when a cow or buffalo is short of energy. Vets commonly use it with BHB, the main blood ketone, to judge how well dairy animals are coping in the weeks around calving.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain)
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Biochemistry

Mineral Profile (Calcium, Phosphorus & Magnesium)

A mineral profile measures calcium, phosphorus and magnesium in one blood sample. It helps a vet look into bone, muscle and nerve problems in pets, and milk fever and other mineral problems around calving in cows and buffaloes.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain)
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Biochemistry

Zinc, Serum

A serum zinc test measures zinc, a trace mineral needed for healthy skin and coat, immunity and healing. It can help a vet check for too little zinc, or too much after an animal swallows a zinc-containing object.

Serum (plain, trace-element-free tube)

Sample: Serum (plain, trace-element-free tube)
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Call to confirm

Biochemistry

Selenium

A selenium test measures selenium, a trace mineral that cows and buffaloes need for healthy muscles, immunity and fertility. It can help a vet check whether an animal or herd may be short of selenium, or getting too much.

Serum or whole blood

Sample: Serum or whole blood
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Biochemistry

Trace Mineral Profile for Cattle & Buffalo (Copper, Zinc & Selenium)

The Trace Mineral Profile measures copper, zinc and selenium in the serum of cows and buffaloes, three minerals often linked with fertility, immunity, growth and coat. It can help your vet look into herd problems; the exact panel is confirmed when you book.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain)

Biochemistry

Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC / UIBC) & Transferrin Saturation

This test shows how much iron the blood's carrier protein, transferrin, can hold (TIBC), how much space is still free (UIBC) and how full it is (saturation). Read with serum iron, it helps a vet look at iron status and anaemia.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain)
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Biochemistry

Ferritin

A ferritin test measures ferritin, the protein that stores iron in the body. A low level can point to low iron stores in dogs and cats, but ferritin also rises with inflammation, so it is read with iron studies and a CBC.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain)
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Biochemistry

Serum Protein Electrophoresis (SPEP)

Serum protein electrophoresis (SPEP) separates blood proteins into albumin and several globulin groups and shows them as a pattern. It can help a vet look into high protein, long-term infection and some blood cancers in dogs and cats.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain)
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Biochemistry

Haptoglobin

A haptoglobin test measures haptoglobin, a protein that rises with inflammation and infection. It is used mainly in cows and buffaloes, and also in dogs, as a general alarm signal rather than a test for one disease.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain)
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Biochemistry

Serum Amyloid A (SAA)

A serum amyloid A (SAA) test measures a protein that rises quickly with inflammation or infection and falls as the animal gets better. In dogs, cows and buffaloes, repeat tests can help a vet follow recovery.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain)
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Biochemistry

Glutamate Dehydrogenase (GLDH)

A GLDH test measures glutamate dehydrogenase, an enzyme found inside liver cells. In cows and buffaloes, a rise can point to liver cell damage, and it is often read next to AST and GGT.

Serum (plain)

Sample: Serum (plain)
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Biochemistry

Cholinesterase (Pseudocholinesterase)

A cholinesterase test measures an enzyme that falls when an animal is poisoned by organophosphate or carbamate pesticides. It is a screening tool for dogs, cats, cows and buffaloes, not a full poison screen.

Serum or heparinised plasma

Sample: Serum or heparinised plasma
Report time: Confirmed when you book

Biochemistry

Bicarbonate (Total CO2)

A bicarbonate (total CO2) test measures the body's main buffer against acid in the blood. With electrolytes, it helps a vet judge acid balance in dehydration, vomiting, diarrhoea and kidney problems.

Serum

Sample: Serum (3 mL)

Hormone Assays

ACTH

The ACTH test measures the pituitary hormone that tells the adrenal glands to make cortisol, and it can help vets find where an adrenal problem begins in dogs and cats.

Serum

Sample: Serum (3 mL)

Hormone Assays

Progesterone, Serum

The progesterone test measures a hormone made by the ovary after an egg is released, and it helps vets time mating and check heat and fertility in dogs, cats, cows and buffaloes.

About this test list

Prices follow the printed rate card of Pashupatinath Vet Lab (rates dated 4 December 2025). Prices are in Indian rupees. The final amount is confirmed at booking. Tests that are not on the printed rate card, or have no printed price, show “Price on request” and we confirm the amount when you book.

Routine blood, urine and stool tests are normally reported the same day or within 24 hours. PCR, ELISA, culture and biopsy tests need more time, so the lab confirms the reporting time when you book. A registered veterinarian should read every result together with your animal’s signs and history.

Not sure which test your animal needs?

Tell us the signs you see. We will suggest which tests your veterinarian may want, and book them for you.
