HealthGene Laboratory offers a wide array of diagnostic tests for infectious agents such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites. Clients using our services have the option of conducting one test at time or selecting from a list of DNA profiles. Each profile offers a combination of diagnostic tests uniquely designed to target the DNA of multiple infectious organisms known to cause specific symptoms at a given site of infection (for example, FP4 - Feline Intraocular Infection Profile) or known to be common for the species tested in instances of profiles for general screening. Each infectious agent listed in the profile has been selected based on research and documented evidence showing its association with a specific set of symptoms or site of infection, or its relevence to the problem or screening intended for this particular species. This approach is unique to HealthGene Laboratory. DNA profiles offer an economical solution to conducting several diagnostic tests at once and are considered indispensable by many specialists in veterinary and pet industry.
