Companion Genetics applies the rigor of human precision-medicine sequencing to veterinary diagnostics — giving vets, breeders, and pet owners genomic insight that traditional PCR and microarray panels can't reach.
PCR and microarray tests check for known mutations one at a time. Next-generation sequencing reads the full target region — catching novel variants, structural changes, and combinations that older methods are built to miss.
Every report is backed by rigorous, NGS-validated genomic research — not a single-marker assay.
Higher accuracy, broader mutation capture, and reports built to be actionable in the exam room.
Human-grade precision standards applied to every individual animal's unique genetic blueprint.
Proactive diagnostic insight drives earlier, more effective clinical intervention.
| Capability | PCR / Microarray | Companion Genetics NGS |
|---|---|---|
| Accuracy on low-frequency variants | Limited — targets known sites only | High — reads full target region |
| Mutation types captured | Single known SNP per assay | SNPs, indels, and structural variants |
| Novel mutation detection | ✕ Not possible | ✓ Detected directly |
| Report format | Pass/fail per marker | Veterinary-grade, treatment-oriented |
The first NGS-based cancer tumor profiling for cats, plus custom and whole-genome panels for novel mutation detection.
Know your pet's blueprint — health, breed, and trait screening from a single at-home saliva sample.
Every panel we run adds to a growing reference dataset — the foundation for sharper variant calls and better outcomes over time.
