MDR1 DNA Test for Drug Intolerance in Dogs
A mutation in the ABCB1 gene leads to increased sensitivity (multidrug resistance, MDR) to certain medications and can cause severe poisoning in affected dogs. With the genetic test for multi-drug resistance 1 (MDR1), you can determine whether your dog is a carrier of the ABCB1 gene mutation that causes this condition. The defect is considered to be autosomal recessive, but even heterozygous animals show increased sensitivity to certain medications.

First DNA Test for Equine Turner Syndrome Now Available
generatio is expanding its range of genetic tests for horses with a new, innovative DNA test for equine Turner syndrome (eTS) – a chromosomal disorder in mares that has been difficult to diagnose until now. The new test enables easy and reliable diagnosis from a hair root sample for the first time. The absence of an X chromosome is the most common chromosomal abnormality in horses.
