DNA Testing Resources

  • IBBA members are currently free to submit DNA samples to the laboratory of their choice. Alternatively, DNA may be submitted to the IBBA office for testing for a nominal fee in addition to the laboratory testing fee.
  • The following laboratories work closely with the IBBA. The member can choose to which lab they would like to submit DNA samples. When submitting DNA for testing, if you are using the physical form found on the GoBrangus.com site given below, please email or fax a copy to our DNA Specialist, [email protected], to ensure results are shared with the IBBA. If you plan to submit DNA through the member system, regstr, all results will be sent to your account when received by the laboratory.
  • If a member elects to submit DNA samples directly to a laboratory, they must also confirm release of those results to the IBBA.
  • Pricing and product lists are available upon request to the IBBA office at (210) 696-8231 or by email.
