Genetic Preservation Services at Gemini Genetics
Step 1 : Genetic Preservation: £600 (+ VAT*)
This is the first stage in the pet & equine cloning process. DNA is preserved to enable indefinite storage and future cloning.
Step 2: Cell Culture: £1600 (+ VAT*) if UK resident
This is the second stage in the pet & equine cloning process. The preserved DNA is asked to replicate so that we can check that the DNA is viable for cloning and to also prepare the DNA for the cloning process.
If you request genetic preservation & cell culture upon sample submission, then both services can be provided for £1,600 + VAT.
Step 3: Cryo storage: £12 per month (+ VAT*) (invoiced annually)
This is the intermediate stage in the pet & equine cloning process. Animal DNA and cultured cells are expertly preserved at -196 degrees Celsius to enable long term, indefinite storage of the animal genetics.
Step 4: Independent DNA profile - £150 (+ VAT) if correct sample type is available
If a blood sample is available from your cat or dog, or a mane or tail hair sample with root attached from your horse, then we can also offer an independent DNA profiling test service for £150 +VAT. This provides for an independent genetic profile of your animal only.
*+VAT if UK resident
