Sample Submission

Registered general veterinary practices can submit samples to the Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory. Please contact the laboratory the first time you wish to use our services. Tick off the desired parameters and/or profiles on the requisition form. We offer courier service in collaboration with the clinical microbiology service  (SUND VET DIAGNOSTIK) through GLS. Samples and requisition forms can therefore be submitted in the same envelope for both laboratories.
