Veterinary Diagnostics

Real-time PCR Detection

The speed and specificity of real-time PCR Detection has allowed GeneSeek to provide quality diagnostic data in short turnaround times. real-time technology also allows GeneSeek to provide contract research and development for improved pathogen detection and validation. We have assisted beef and pork producers in making quality animal health decisions for many years.

Swine Diagnostics

GeneSeek offers real-time PCR base detection of both PRRSV and PCV2 viruses. ELISA tests are also available for both PRRSV and M. hyopneumoniae. GeneSeek’s swine diagnostic testing combines fast (same day PCR turnaround) and reliable data with the highest quality of customer service.

Bovine Diagnostics

GeneSeek offers both real-time PCR and ELISA detection for Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVD virus or BVDV). We accept a multitude of sample types for testing including whole blood, blood spotted on cards, serum, and tissue. We also have the ability to run additional genomic or diagnostic tests from a single submitted sample. Diagnostic testing can now be performed from hair follicle submissions.

We now offer two new tests. One for rapid detection of bovine pregnancy, and one for rapid detection of Mycoplasma bovis. Click here for more details!

Alpaca BVDV Diagnostic Testing

BVDV, a known and serious problem in cattle, is also emerging as significant problem in alpacas. BVDV infection has been proven to cause illness, abortions and, most importantly, can remain in the persistently infected (PI) state in alpacas. Persistently infected crias or adults are the main mode of virus spread among animals and, therefore, early detection of these animals in a herd is extremely important for the alpaca industry. GeneSeek offers a highly sensitive and specific testing method where BVDV can be readily detected off a simple blood card. GeneSeek provides rapid next day turnaround for samples and can run 1 to 100s of samples based upon the customer's needs.

Development and Validation

GeneSeek provides quality contract research and development for all your diagnostic needs. PCR design and sample validation for improved pathogen detection are just two areas in which GeneSeek has made an impact in the veterinary diagnostic field.
