Blood Testing
Our services
NMR are more than just a milk lab, we regularly test blood for infectious diseases to include Johne’s, BVD, IBR-gE, Lepto, Liver Fluke & Neospora.
Furthermore, BVD antigen/virus can be detected in blood samples.
Results can be expected within two working days from receipt of samples in laboratory
Sampling
Please use red-topped 6ml tubes, a submission form and post as soon as possible after sampling. Blood samples that are more than seven days old (from the date the sample is taken) are unsuitable for testing and will be rejected. Check postal times or use a recorded service to ensure prompt delivery.
All blood samples should be posted to our Hillington lab: National Milk Records (NMR), Hillington Park, Glasgow, G52 4LT
