Genetic Testing and
Research for Dogs
Sample
Requirements
DOGenes sends you DNA sampling
kits
with your order. If you don't want to wait for these in the mail
here is
what you can do:
We accept any single tip cotton top swab
or cytology brush.
If you use a Q-tip cut off one end of the swab so that we know where
the DNA is.
The
samples must be air dried for 2 minutes and placed in an envelope, not
in a tube or other container.
We
ask for 3 samples/animal, and that each sample is in an individual
envelope.
Puppies
should be one month old for sampling.
