Table 2.
Coefficient of variation for the Catalyst Progesterone assay based on two assays per fresh serum sample, in quick succession and by the same operator.
| Limits in P4 levels (nmol/L) of the buckets used | CV (%) | n a |
|---|---|---|
| 0.7–6 | 7.8 | 11 |
| 7–12 | 13.4 | 12 |
| 14–27 | 12.0 | 9 |
Some of the serum samples used to determine the CV for this assay were not from the 28 bitches used in this study but from other preparturient bitches.
