“…The sensitivity of the visual‐PAG‐test in mid to late gestation was good (98.16% [WhB]—99.39% [S, P]) compared to transabdominal ultrasonography as a gold standard. These results are similar to the sensitivity in cattle reported by the manufacturer (99.5%) and to values given by other research groups for ovine whole blood and plasma (99.8%) (Green et al, ) or serum (100%) (de Miranda et al, ). Two sheep in experiment 1 were diagnosed as pregnant by ultrasonography as well as the visual‐PAG‐test but no parturition was observed in our study.…”

“…The specificity in whole blood (94.12%) and serum (93.46%) is similar to that reported in cattle by the manufacturer (92.6%) and to previously published results in sheep: Green et al () reported a specificity of 91.7% for whole blood and plasma, while de Miranda et al () found a specificity of 97.06% in ovine serum. However, our study showed a low specificity of the visual‐PAG‐test in plasma (76.47%).…”
