Diagnostic Tests
A $10 submission fee and 1% hazardous fee is assessed on each case.
Testing Schedule
Our goal is to provide accurate results and timely service. However, many research and diagnostic assays are not performed daily and/or testing schedules may change. If your case involves testing animals for export, show animals, animals to be sold, and/or a large number of samples, please contact the VDL (515-294-1950) prior to submission to verify the availability and turnaround time.
Fees and test schedules are subject to change without notice.
For additional test information, please click the pathogen name.
^ Testing performed in part or in total at a Referral Laboratory.
^^ Assay has not been fully validated for all the testing conducted.

Appropriate swabs to use for influenza virus PCR are synthetic (Dacron or Rayon) tipped swabs on plastic shafts. Swabs should be placed in 1 ml of PBS in a falcon snap cap tube and the shaft broken low enough to allow the cap to be securely snapped tightly and avoid leakage. Do not send swabs in agar or gel-type media. Avoid using any calcium-alginate-tipped swabs or bleach. Also avoid cotton swabs with wooden shafts. Ship swabs overnight to the diagnostic laboratory.
Acceptable swabs:
Star Swab II, Copan swabs, Other swabs are also available.

Contact your state health official first if lesions suggest a foreign animal disease.
Appropriate swabs to use for SVA PCR are synthetic (Dacron or Rayon) tipped swabs on plastic shafts. Swabs should be placed in 1 ml of PBS in a falcon snap cap tube and the shaft broken low enough to allow the cap to be securely snapped tightly and avoid leakage. Do not send swabs in agar or gel-type media. Avoid using any calcium-alginate-tipped swabs or bleach. Also avoid cotton swabs with wooden shafts. Ship swabs overnight to the diagnostic laboratory. Acceptable swabs: Star Swab II, Copan swabs, Other swabs are also available.
