We've added new PCR tests for swine and bovine diseases -- see our menu for a complete listing.

Parrots moving in or moving out? Try our psittacine PCR screening panel.

Respiratory problems got you breathless? Try our poultry respiratory PCR panel.

Our DRY CARDS let you mail blood samples to Zoologix easily and cheaply from anywhere because DRY CARD samples are small, light and stable at room temperature for several weeks.

Poultry respiratory PCR panel. NOTE: THIS PANEL IS NOT PERFORMED ON SAMPLES TAKEN FROM BIRDS OWNED OR LOCATED IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.

Test code: P0018 - Poultry respiratory panel detects and differentiates six clinically significant respiratory pathogens:

Aspergillus fumigatus
Infectious bronchitis
Infectious laryngotracheitis
Infectious coryza
Ornithobacterium rhinotracheale
Mycoplasma gallisepticum

Respiratory symptoms in poultry can be caused by various viral, bacterial and fungal agents. Treatments and quarantine protocols differ among these pathogens, and some can be quite expensive -- not to mention stressful for birds and staff!

The Zoologix respiratory PCR test panel for poultry is a powerful but economical tool for diagnosing respiratory cases in poultry. The entire panel is run from three tracheal swabs, eliminating multiple sampling requirements.  Highly sensitive and specific results are reported by email or fax three business days after sample receipt.

Utilities:

  • Help confirm the disease causing agent
  • Shorten the time required to confirm clinical diagnosis and differentiation of infection by several clinically significant respiratory pathogens of poultry
  • Help ensure that flocks are free of these pathogens
  • Early prevention of spread of these pathogens among and between flocks
  • Minimize human exposure to the pathogens
  • Safety monitoring of biological products and vaccines that derive from birds

Preferred specimen: 3 tracheal swabs.

Contact Zoologix if advice is needed to determine an appropriate specimen type for a specific diagnostic application. For specimen types not listed here, please contact Zoologix to confirm specimen acceptability and shipping instructions.

For all specimen types, if there will be a delay in shipping, or during very warm weather, refrigerate specimens until shipped and ship with a cold pack unless more stringent shipping requirements are specified. Frozen specimens should be shipped so as to remain frozen in transit. See shipping instructions for more information.

Turnaround time: 3 business days

Methodology: Qualitative multiplexed real time PCR and qualitative multiplexed reverse transcription coupled real time PCR

Normal range: Nondetected
