(ONLINE PRICE)

Test Overview:

Avoid breeding two carriers to prevent producing affected puppies. Employ comprehensive genetic screening including SLC3A1 and SLC7A9 to fully assess risk. Select breeding pairs carefully to reduce disease prevalence while preserving breed genetic diversity.

Category:

Urinary system / Urologic - Associated with the kidneys, bladder, ureters and urethra

Gene:

SLC3A and SLC7A9

Variant Detected:

c.574A>G (p.Ile192Val) in exon 2 and c.2092A>G (p.Ser698Gly) in exon 10.
