Pet biochemistry and PCR are not exactly the same. They have differences in experimental principles and applications.
Biochemical testing usually uses serological methods to assess the physiological status of pets by detecting biomolecules in their bodies. Test items include multiple indicators such as blood sugar, protein, lipids, and liver function. In biochemical testing, after sampling, the blood sample needs to be placed in a special centrifuge to separate the serum. The separated serum fluid can be used to measure scientific parameters such as blood sugar, protein and liver function indicators.
PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is a molecular detection technology based on DNA replication. PCR is widely used in genetic analysis, virus detection, etc. It can also be used to detect pathogens and genetic variations in pets. PCR experiments require special PCR equipment and high-purity reagents, and the operation process is slightly complicated.
In general, biochemical detection and PCR are both commonly used experimental methods in the fields of medicine and biology, but their application scope and principles are different. As a typical biochemical detection method, pet biochemistry is often used in pet health care and disease diagnosis, while PCR is often used to evaluate the genetic variation of pets and detect pathogens in pets.
