- World’s leader in pet genetics celebrates another industry milestone in conjunction with National DNA Day
Wisdom Health Genetics, the world leader in pet genetics and maker of the WISDOM PANEL™ dog DNA tests, has announced an industry milestone in conjunction with National DNA Day: To date, more than 2.5 million dogs worldwide have been DNA tested with the Wisdom Panel™ range of products—more than any other dog DNA service provider.
반려동물 유전학 분야의 세계적 리더이자 개 DNA 검사의 제조업체인 Wisdom Health Genetics는 National DNA Day와 함께 업계 이정표를 발표했다. 전 세계 250만 마리의 개가 Wisdom Panel™ 제품군으로 DNA 검사를 받았으며 이는 다른 어떤 개 DNA 서비스 제공업체보다 더 많다.
Across the United States and Western Europe, pet parents, veterinarians, and breeders alike have chosen Wisdom Panel™ tests more than two million times to uncover their dogs’ unique ancestry, traits, and potential health risks. Analyzing the extensive DNA database behind Wisdom Panel™ tests reveals the following insights about the millions of dogs tested:
미국과 서유럽 전역에서 반려인, 수의사, 브리더 모두 Wisdom Panel™ 테스트를 200만번 이상 선택하여 개의 고유한 조상, 특성 및 잠재적인 건강 위험을 밝혀냈다. Wisdom Panel™ 테스트 뒤에 있는 방대한 DNA 데이터베이스를 분석하면 수백만 마리의 개에 대해 다음과 같은 통찰력을 얻을 수 있다.
