Technology is disclosed for a cat litter that can be used to diagnose feline medical conditions. A cat litter contains an additive, e.g., a chemical agent, such as a natural and/or synthetic agent, that changes in color when it comes in contact with cat urine or feces. Based on the color it can be determined whether the cat has a medical condition, such as particular illness. For example, if the litter turns yellow when it comes in contact with the urine, it can indicate that the cat is healthy. If the litter turns to a color other than yellow, e.g., green, it can indicate that the cat has some illness. The cat then be taken to a veterinary doctor for further diagnosis. The chemical agent aids in detection and diagnosis through interaction of materials that change colors to indicate reactions with specific chemicals, cells, molecules, DNA and/or materials. The technology can be implemented for medical diagnosis and detection—for humans and/or animals.

The present invention relates to pregnancy testing in animals such as dogs and cats. In particular, the present invention provides assay methods for relaxin, and a kit for pregnancy testing in an animal, anti-relaxin antibodies and functional fragments thereof which can be used in the assay, hybridoma cell lines producing the same, nucleic acids encoding the same, and methods for producing the anti-relaxin antibodies and functional fragments thereof.

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method and a monoclonal antibody for giant panda relaxin-3 (RLN3) are provided. The method includes: conducting ELISA with an anti-giant panda RLN3 monoclonal antibody as a coating antibody and an anti-RLN3 polyclonal antibody as a labeling antibody, where the anti-giant panda RLN3 monoclonal antibody is secreted by a hybridoma cell line RLN-3; and the hybridoma cell line RLN-3 was deposited in the China Center for Type Culture Collection (CCTCC) of Wuhan University, Wuhan, China on Jan. 7, 2021, with an accession number of CCTCC NO: C202129. In addition, an ELISA method for detecting RLN3 in giant panda urine is developed, in which a prepared anti-giant panda RLN3 monoclonal antibody is used as a coating antibody and an anti-giant panda RLN3 polyclonal antibody is used as a labeling antibody. The method can monitor a change in giant panda RLN3 timely by determining giant panda RLN3.
