Faster turnaround
No waiting on a courier or a third-party lab queue — results feed straight back into your health plan.
Our laboratory
Laboratory
An in-house laboratory means we're not waiting on a third party when a flock's health is on the line.
Why it matters
More than test results
Accurate laboratory diagnostics are the foundation of effective flock health management. We run our own laboratory, so microbiology, Salmonella, water and serology samples can be processed without relying on an external provider — cutting turnaround time at exactly the moments it matters most.
“Fast turnaround times are important, but accurate interpretation is what makes the difference.”
What we test
Comprehensive diagnostic services
Every result is interpreted alongside the clinical team and fed straight back into the flock's health plan, rather than handed over as an isolated report.
01
Serology
Monitoring immune status and vaccine response across the flock, so gaps in protection are identified before they turn into an outbreak.
02
Salmonella testing
Screening and confirmation in line with national control programmes.
03
PCR testing
Rapid, precise detection of specific pathogens to sharpen diagnosis and guide treatment.
04
Bacteriology
Isolation and identification of bacterial agents behind disease outbreaks, giving a clear diagnostic picture.
05
Parasitology
Identification of parasitic burdens affecting flock health and performance.
06
Post-mortem examinations
Detailed clinical examination to establish cause of death or disease with confidence.
07
Water quality testing
Microbiological and chemical testing of drinking water — a critical, often overlooked, input to flock health.
08
Feed & environmental sampling
Testing of feed and house environment to identify contributing factors to poor performance.
09
Antimicrobial sensitivity testing
Guiding responsible, effective treatment choices when antimicrobial therapy is required.
Working in partnership
Diagnostics integrated into your health plan
Our laboratory doesn't operate in isolation — results are read by the same veterinary team that examined your flock, and interpreted in the context of what's happening on site. That partnership between clinical work and diagnostics is what turns a test result into a practical next step.
