Our Section
The Molecular Diagnostics Section tests for a wide variety of pathogens using an array of molecular techniques. These molecular techniques, such as real-time PCR, allow for highly sensitive testing on a small amount of sample, with a very rapid rate of detection, making it an invaluable tool in the detection of infectious disease.
General Guidelines
- Samples need to arrive before 11 a.m. on the scheduled testing day for results to be completed on the same day as submission.
- Please label the samples with consecutive numbers (1,2,3鈥tc.) and submit with a corresponding animal identification form and .
- Unless required, you do not need to write the animal identification number directly on the tube if it is linked with the sample number on the animal identification spreadsheet.
- Submission and animal identification forms can be emailed to the lab at sdsu.adrdl@sdstate.edu.
- Pooling samples may decrease the sensitivity of PCR, so consider consulting with the laboratory or your veterinarian to determine if pooling should be performed.
