Description

Buccal Mucosal Bleeding Time Device

Test applicable to: Cat
Sample: Whole Blood

BMBT -Vet. Cat is a useful in-clinic screening device for the identification of thrombocytic and vascular bleeding disorders in cats by measuring the Buccal Mucosal Bleeding Time.

BMBT-Vet. Cat enables the veterinarian to make a standardised incision ( lancet -0.6 mm deep by 2.2mm long) in 1/1000 second, based on an easy-to-use and simple incision lancet technique.

After the planar placing on the mucosa, the nearly painless incision is made automatically by simply pushing the trigger. Due to the automatic retraction of the steel blade after setting the incision, there is no possibility of injury to either the animal or the vet.

The BMBT (Buccal Mucosal Bleeding Time) is the time that passes once an incision has been made with the use of BMBT-Vet. Cat until haemostasis is present.
