Overview

This genetic test assesses the PKD1 c.9882C>A variant associated with Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) in cats.

PKD involves the development of fluid-filled cysts in the kidneys, which can lead to progressive loss of kidney function over time.

The result helps clarify whether the cat carries this variant. This supports breeding decisions and can contribute to earlier follow-up in cats from at-risk lines.

The trait follows autosomal dominant inheritance.
