SENO Bird Gender Testing Services – Accurate, Fast, and Convenient DNA Analysis

SENO Bird Gender Testing Services uses advanced PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) technology to identify bird gender by analyzing the CHD gene on sex chromosomes. This method is highly accurate, non-invasive, and works for all bird species, including those without visible gender traits.

Why Choose PCR for Bird Gender Testing?

• High Accuracy (up to 99.9%) – PCR amplifies CHD-Z and CHD-W gene fragments, ensuring reliable gender identification even for monomorphic species like parrots, pigeons, and finches.

• Safe and Non-Invasive – No stress for your bird; only a small feather, blood drop, or eggshell sample is needed.

• Quick Turnaround – Results are delivered in 1-2 business days after receiving the sample.

• Easy Sample Collection – Collect a drop of blood on a card, let it dry, and attach it to a regular letter for mailing. Simple, safe, and cost-effective.

Sample Handling and Processing

Collecting a bird’s DNA sample with a blood card is safe, easy, and accurate. Follow these simple steps:

 What You Need:

• A blood card (provided)

• Scissors or a needle (sterilized)

• Alcohol swab (for cleaning)

• Tissue (for stopping bleeding)

Step-by-Step Guide:

1️⃣ Prepare the Bird
Hold the bird gently, exposing one toe. Clean the toe with an alcohol swab.

2️⃣ Collect the Sample
Clip a tiny piece of the nail or lightly prick the toe. A small drop of blood will appear.

3️⃣ Apply the Blood
Let the drop fall directly onto the blood card’s sample area. One drop is enough.
Do not smear.

4️⃣ Dry the Card
Let the card air-dry for 30 minutes.
Do not use a hairdryer or heat.

5️⃣ Label the Sample
Write the bird’s details (species, sample number, date) on the card.

6️⃣ Send It to the Lab
Place the card and your form in an envelope and mail it to us.
No need for refrigeration.

✅ Quick Tips:

• Keep the card dry and clean.

• Avoid mixing samples.

• Contact us if you need help!

Once your sample arrives at SENO’s laboratory, it undergoes careful DNA extraction, PCR amplification, and gel electrophoresis for clear and accurate results.
