Why Conquer exists
Protect gives you the baseline: parasite burden, heavy metals, and micronutrient status. Defend adds pesticide residues and ionophore feed contaminants. Conquer takes that foundation further — adding reproductive toxin screening and mycotoxin detection, all analyzed through the horse's manure.
The result is the broadest fecal-based Organics screen we offer. Seven analytical layers — parasite burden, toxic heavy metals, micronutrient patterns, pesticide residues, ionophore contaminants, reproductive toxin signals, and mycotoxin burden — reviewed together in a single coordinated panel.
This is not a service for every situation. It's built for cases where ruling out multiple hidden layers at once is more useful than stepping through narrower packages over time. Where the stakes are higher, the history is more complex, or the questions involve reproduction, feed risk, or cumulative exposure.
Manure-based detection, not feed analysis
Conquer analyzes the horse's manure — not the feed directly. This provides a horse-level picture of what is actually entering, passing through, and being excreted by that specific animal. For direct feed and forage analysis, see Clarity Core and Clarity Pro.
Reproductive toxin screening (manure analysis)
Some compounds interfere with hormonal signaling — including compounds that behave like estrogen in the body, known as estrogenic disruptors. When present, they can affect the precision of reproductive hormonal cycles: fertility, conception timing, embryonic support, and pregnancy maintenance.
Conquer screens for these compounds as they appear in the horse's manure — providing evidence of actual biological exposure and passage, rather than what might be present in the environment or feed source alone.
This layer is particularly relevant for breeding mares and stallions, operations with reproductive programs underway, and any situation where unexplained reproductive variability is a concern. It doesn't replace veterinary reproductive assessment — but it adds a layer of biological context that standard management rarely captures.
Mycotoxin screening (manure analysis)
Mycotoxins are fungal toxins that can contaminate hay, grain, and feed inputs — particularly when forage is improperly cured, stored in damp conditions, or sourced from regions with elevated mold risk. They're invisible in routine management review, which makes them one of the harder hidden-input categories to identify without targeted testing.
At meaningful levels, mycotoxin burden can affect gut integrity, immune function, reproductive performance, and overall resilience. Conquer screens for aflatoxins and fumonisins as they appear in the horse's manure — adding a layer of fungal toxin visibility that neither Protect nor Defend includes.
This is not a service for every situation. But for clients who want a broader organic exposure picture — or who have concerns about feed quality, forage sourcing, or unexplained gut and immune variability — mycotoxin screening is a meaningful addition.
Priority turnaround & results review call
Priority turnaround
Conquer samples are processed ahead of the standard queue. This matters in active management situations — approaching a breeding window, running a clinical investigation, or any case where faster results meaningfully change what happens next. It's not a minor detail; it's a practical upgrade for situations where timing counts.
Results review call
After results are delivered, a guided interpretation conversation is scheduled with the Metaboly team. We walk through findings across all analytical layers — what was detected, what it may suggest in context, and what practical next steps the data points toward. The goal is to make sure you understand what the results mean for your horse, not just receive a report and move on.
Best for
Breeding operations where reproductive toxin and mycotoxin screening are especially relevant
Horses with complex, persistent, or multi-factor health concerns where a broad picture is needed at once
Cases where timing matters and priority turnaround is a meaningful advantage
High-performance horses where the broadest fecal-based Organics screen is the goal
Clients who want the deepest Organics layer rather than stepping through narrower packages sequentially
Situations where several overlapping exposure categories — pesticides, ionophores, reproductive toxins, mycotoxins — are all worth ruling in or out together
Any case where a results review call would add real value to understanding findings in context

What's included
Seven analytical layers. One coordinated manure-based Organics panel.
Protect Foundation (Manure Analysis)
Complete baseline screening: Fecal Egg Count (FEC), full micronutrient and elemental panel (28+ elements), and heavy metal screening — all analyzed through manure. Parasite burden, toxic metal exposure, and mineral status in one coordinated layer.
Pesticide Residue Screening (Manure Analysis)
Targeted screening for glyphosate, atrazine, and 2,4-D — detected in the horse's manure. Evidence of actual exposure and biological passage, not just environmental presence. Residues that standard panels never capture.
Ionophore Feed Contaminant Detection (Manure Analysis)
Screens for monensin, narasin, and salinomycin — ionophore compounds used in cattle and poultry feed — by analyzing their presence in the horse's manure. Detects evidence that these compounds have entered and passed through the horse's system.
Reproductive Toxin Screening (Manure Analysis)
Screening for estrogenic disruptors and compounds that can interfere with hormonal signaling — detected through manure analysis. Particularly relevant for breeding operations and horses where reproductive performance is a concern.
Mycotoxin Screening (Manure Analysis)
Screens for fungal toxin burden — including aflatoxins and fumonisins — as they appear in the horse's manure. One of the harder hidden-input categories to identify from management review alone. Added for clients who want a broader organic exposure picture.
Priority Turnaround
Conquer samples are processed ahead of standard queue. When timing matters — active management decisions, breeding windows, clinical investigations — priority turnaround means you're not waiting longer than necessary.
Results Review Call
A guided interpretation conversation with the Metaboly team. We walk through findings, discuss what the results suggest in context, and help you understand implications and practical next steps — not just raw data.
