The Laboratory of Serology and Molecular Diagnostics is part of the Food and Veterinary Laboratory (LUV). It deals with the testing of samples received from veterinary inspectors and from licensed private veterinary practices within Kosovo. About 20,000 tests are performed in this laboratory per year. The tests are performed for diagnostic purposes of infectious diseases, animal health monitoring plans at the national level and for the evaluation of the efficacy of vaccines. All methods are subject to quality control. The accuracy and reliability of the results are our main focus, where we give priority to the use of validated and accredited methods.
