Quality Indicators - Procedures/ Services

Sample collected by - GTP specific

Samples typically collected either by the dog owner, a certified veterinarian, or "official" sample taker of the national kennel club. All certified sample takers are uniquely identifiable and traceable based on vet ID number or name registry.

Sample Identification

All samples are barcoded for unique identification and automated processing from sample reception through analysis and storage. The sample taking event is always carefully documented, to clearly state whether the sampled dog was unambigously identified by checking of microchip/tattoo. All submission forms require signatures by the dog owner and sample taker for event verification and traceability.
