Description

Our cutting-edge facilities allow us to test samples from exotic animals like reptiles. We offer a selection of different faecal screens to reptile owners to test an animal’s gastrointestinal health, checking for parasites as well as bacterial and fungal infections, we also offer virus testing.

How does it work?

Simply order your desired testing kit from us and we’ll arrange to send your reptile testing kit, along with a form to fill in, and instructions.

We request samples from three different days within a seven day period where possible. Faecal samples should be kept in a cool place like a shed or garage. For Arenavirus PCR we required a Heparin blood sample (to be taken by an exotic vet) and an oesophageal plain swab and for Nidovirus PCR, we require a tracheal plain swab or a lavage and for Adenovirus PCR, we require a oral/cloacal plain swab. For the Mycoplasma Agassizi PCR (Tortoise) we require a oral or tracheal plain swab.

Please note: as we are a laboratory and not a veterinary practice, we do not give advice regarding any treatments that may be available, as this is the responsibility of your exotic vet. Should interpretation be required, it will be stated on your report.
