The SaberVet Canine Pancreatic Lipase Rapid Test is a lateral flow immunoassay intended for the determination of pancreas-specific lipase levels in canine serum or plasma. Description The pancreas of the canine is V-shaped, with both left and right lobes narrow and long, the two lobes being connected at an acute angle posterior to the pylorus, the junction being the body of the pancreas. The left lobe extends posteriorly to the left between the visceral surface of the stomach and the transverse colon, reaching the anterior end of the left kidney; the right lobe extends posteriorly on the dorsal side of the descending part of the duodenum, on the caudal lobe of the liver, and on the posterior end of the right kidney, often terminating a short distance posterior to the right kidney. Most natural cases are edematous pancreatitis, while experimental cases are acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis. The cause may be related to the following factors,the experimental onset is acute haemorrhagic pancreatitis,The etiology may be related to the following factors 1. Obesity Acute pancreatitis occurs in obese dogs, and the condition of experimental obese dogs is more serious than that of thin dogs. Excess fat in the food is prone to “nutritional deficiency”, while high-fat food can also change the content of pancreatic intracellular enzymes. Therefore, high-fat food and nutritional status become an important factor in triggering acute pancreatitis. 2. Hyperlipidaemia Hyperlipidaemia is often associated with acute pancreatitis in dogs. Conversely, acute pancreatitis can induce hyperlipidaemia and alter plasma proteases.
