PCR for Leishmaniasis

[GUDERIAN, RON]

Mrs. Debra Quaka,
	I did follow the story about Leishmania in your dog. Concerning, PCR 
for Leishmania we are able to do the test, however, the transportation 
of the sample to our laboratory should be a problem since we would 
prefer the bone marrow aspirate fresh and/or packaged on ice. In any 
case, if you and the veterinarian find the way to send us the sample in 
appropiate conditions we are ready to do the test for you.

In yours.
