Testing for MDR1
Genetic Counselling Services (GCS) organizes and coordinates the MDR1
testing in the Netherlands and other European countries. If you want your dog
tested, you should fill in a survey report and
print it. There are several ways to have your dog tested.
-
If you want a certificate with the test result for your dog, you should
go to your veterinarian with the survey report and a
copy of the registration document (e.g. the pedigree). Your veterinarian
will check the identity of your
dog and will send the signed survey report and the copy of the registration
document together with the sample (EDTA-blood or swabs) to GCS. Within three
weeks after receival of the sample, GCS will send you a certificate with the
details on the identity of your dog and the test result.
-
If you just want the test result for a sample, you should send your signed
survey report together with the sample to GCS. Apart from the owner's
information it is important to fill in the detailed information about
your dog. It helps your breed club to define a strategy to solve the MDR1
problem for your breed. Within three weeks after receival of the sample, GCS will
send you the test result.
