Virology Submissions
An appropriate submission form must accompany all specimens.
The information requested is necessary to determine which laboratory tests are appropriate, to minimise associated laboratory charges and to optimize result turn-around time.
It is our aim to provide accurate results and timely service. However many diagnostic tests are not performed daily and laboratory schedules may change. If your submission includes animals for export, large numbers of samples or for any other reason is time-dependent, please contact the lab to verify availability and turnaround time of specific assays.
When more than ten samples are being sent (herd screens, etc), use the excel-log-in (xls 58Kb) form and email it ahead of the samples, to virology@agriculture.gov.ie doing this allows us to plan testing schedules and provide better, more informative reports.
