Detection of Mycoplasma bovis by real time PCR. Test is available as STAT if requested, for an additional fee. Same day results provided for STAT specimens submitted before 10:00 a.m. Results for STAT specimens submitted after 10:00 a.m. receive priority status and are reported as soon as they are available, at least by the following business day. Test also available as part of the Bovine Respiratory PCR Panel.

Detection of antibodies to Neospora caninum in bovine serum by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Samples must be received in the lab by 5 pm the day prior to testing, otherwise samples will be held until next scheduled testing day. With the addition of a STAT Fee, alternate testing times are possible to expedite turnaround times. Please call us at 541-737-2172 if testing a large number of animals. While advance notice is preferable, it is not required.

Routinely performed set of tests to detect infectious agents that cause abortions. Bacteriology performs Aerobic culture of Stomach Content, Placenta and pooled Liver/Lung. Molecular Diagnostics performs PCR test of Kidney, Thymus, Lung, Liver and Spleen for BVD and IBR. Broad Survey of tissues using H&E stained sections (This changes based on what clients submit if Histo is not being collected in house). Additionally, IgG levels are checked by Serology and Hepatic Minerals for Toxicology (If Approved by Submitter).
