Lab Services
Our experienced laboratory technicians process more than 6 million blood, milk, fecal and tissue samples annually using state of the art techniques including infrared spectroscopy, flow cytometry, ELISA, PCR and more. Our labs are certified by National Dairy Herd Information Services (DHI) and Quality Certification Services (QCS).
Committed to creating novel tests, CentralStar pioneered the use of DHI milk samples for diagnostic testing in 1999. Through collaborations, the cooperative is credited for developing and delivering the first commercially available diagnostic test for milk samples with the AntelBio Johne’s Milk ELISA. Since then, diagnostic tests for use on milk samples have grown, including the much-anticipated Milk Pregnancy Test.
