You can go to the laboratory of Animal Health Care Flanders (DGZ) for analyzes on samples of farm animals, horses and small pets and the autopsy of these animal species. You can also have other samples examined, such as water and processed manure. Thanks to an extensive network for collecting samples and cadavers throughout Flanders, DGZ ensures that samples for laboratory research are collected in the veterinary practice. You can also contact DGZ for samples that you want to have examined with PathoSense via our collection round or at the counters in Torhout or Lier. In addition to the samples you collect for PathoSense, DGZ can also examine samples for bacteriology and PCR.
