What does it mean when my sample is “questionable”? Do I need to resample?

A questionable sample is one that has not met all requirements. We will request a new sample from you if needed. Questionable samples are tested in the lab; we will request a new sample if we cannot obtain an initial result.

What is an Archive Test Request?

The Archive product is selected when a sample is not able to be tested due to missing information or when a samples does not require testing at the present time. The sample is archived with the ability to be tested at a later date. Customers may contact Zoetis Customer Service at 877-233-3362 to inquire about archived samples. 

What are sample failures?

Sample failures are usually related to sample quality and/or collection. Please click here to review sample collection techniques.

How does the SireTRACE® Parentage product work?

SireTRACE can be used in three different ways:

  1. Profile – Customer requests a DNA profile or fingerprint which may be either SNP or STR
  2. Parent Verification using recorded parents (or Dam or Sire only) – Customer nominates the Sire and/or the Dam expected for a calf
  3. Parent Assignment using a Breeding Group – Customer submits calves, the sires used or exposed in a given pasture to a set of dams and a Parentage Assignment is ran to match the “most likely” parent(s).
