Company Performance Metrics
Geneticks is a biotechnology laboratory that tests ticks for Lyme disease and a range of other tick-borne pathogens. The company uses PCR-based molecular assays to detect up to 15 pathogens, including Borrelia burgdorferi, Anaplasma, and Babesia species, in ticks removed from people and animals. Individuals can mail in ticks for identification and
testing, receiving written laboratory reports within defined turnaround times. Geneticks also runs a clinic program and online portal that allow veterinary practices and healthcare providers to order tests, access client results, and review pathogen trends. In addition, the organization supports academic, non-profit, and commercial research by providing tick and environmental pathogen detection services. Geneticks aggregates anonymous testing data into interactive maps to support surveillance of pathogen prevalence and inform healthcare decision-making.
