Biochemical Genetics Laboratory Veterinary Diagnostic Services |
The Biochemical Genetics Laboratory in the Department of Pediatrics at the University of California San Diego has been in operation since the establishment of the UCSD Medical School in 1969. We offer tests not generally available which have been developed in the conduct of research or the care of our patients, and endeavor to assure the maximum quality and reliability. The goal of the UCSD Biochemical Genetics Laboratory is to provide comprehensive diagnostic laboratory services to assist in the diagnosis and treatment of inborn errors of metabolism. A special feature of our lab is our consultation services with health care professionals who specialize in inborn errors of metabolism, and a D.V.M, Ph.D. is available to you for consultation on veterinary patients. Please feel free to call if we can be of assistance in your diagnostic or therapeutic plans.
