Directions for Use

The test includes all supplies needed to collect a sample of fresh manure and return it to our laboratory, including detailed instructions and a pre-addressed return mailer (prepaid shipping within the US).

Once you have registered your horse’s sample ID and we have received the sample, it will be processed using our state-of-the-art DNA sequencing technology. The data will then be analyzed through our comprehensive, proprietary pipeline to identify the bacteria in the sample.

We will prepare a customized report to explain your horse’s results and send it straight to your inbox in about weeks. The report clearly summarizes the bacteria that were found in your horse’s sample, and shows whether potential harmful pathogens were detected.

Once your results are available, schedule an optional 45-minute consultation with a horse microbiome expert for an additional fee ($90).
