Molecular Diagnostics

About the OVDL Section: Molecular Diagnostics

Mosquitoes are prepared for PCR testing to monitor for three viruses potentially dangerous to both animals and humans: West Nile, St. Louis encephalitis and western equine encephalitis virus.

Molecular Diagnostics is one of the sections within the Oregon Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory at Oregon State University. We sat down with the section team to learn more about what they do and who they are.
