Molecular Cytogenetics Laboratory

For chromosome analysis, we use both traditional and state-of-the-art techniques and carry out tests for all domestic animals and a broad range of wild species, including non-mammalian vertebrates. Analyses are done either for a fee or on a collaborative basis.

Available Services:

• Karyotyping from blood, tissues and cell lines
• Karyotyping with routine staining or G-banding of chromosomes
• Molecular cytogenetic analysis using Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization (FISH)
• FKBP6 Genotyping — Test for Thoroughbred stallion subfertility from blood or hair follicles
