... "The Federal Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service notified Wisconsin officials that it would certify only state and federal labs to handle chronic wasting disease testing." ...

The reliability of this "kit" was as asked at the recient CWD info meeting (9/25/02) in Waukesha, WI.

AS far as the State is concerned it can neither approve or disapprove the "off the shelf" test kit. It was a "buyer beware" type of product. You may just as well spend the $65 at the casino, and at least get some entertainment from your money.

Given the difficult nature of testing for CWD, I'd be real suprised if this kit is even as good as worthless.

Sag is right...though I'd say that the $65 spent at the casino is probably a much better investment in this case!! <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
