Kearney, Neb., April 05, 2024 – Bullseye Gx announced today the launch of its genetic testing service focused on supporting the needs of beef cattle producers, feedlot operators, and veterinarians, with an initial focus on Bovine Congestive Heart Failure. Bullseye Gx delivers fast, targeted, and confidential genetic analysis so that timely decisions can be made about the proper management, breeding, and care of livestock.
"Launching Bullseye Gx is the culmination of several months dedicated to validating the importance and impact of our service for the cattle industry,” said Phil Kozera, Co-Founder and CEO. “Our conversations with successful cattlemen, feedlot operators, veterinarians in the region have solidified our commitment to delivering a genetic testing service that’s responsive to issues impacting the industry.”
Bovine Congestive Heart Failure (BCHF) presents a significant challenge to the cattle industry, leading to substantial financial loss. Through the targeted genetic analysis offered by Bullseye Gx, breeders, ranchers, and veterinarians can identify animals at genetic risk of BCHF, enabling proactive measures to manage or mitigate the condition's impact. By incorporating genetic testing into their routine management practices, customers can lower death loss in their herds, enhance breeding decisions, and improve the overall success of their cattle operation.
"At Bullseye GX, our cost-effective approach to genetic testing and our dedication to scientific excellence, translates into practical applications that help our customers make important decisions,” said Dustin Petrik, Co-Founder and Lab Director. “By focusing our testing on specific, impactful genetic markers, we're able to provide insights that are easy to understand, actionable, and come with unmatched level of customer support."
Bullseye Gx is headquartered in Kearney, Nebraska, offering a direct link to the agricultural community and enabling close collaboration with cow/calf operators, feedlots, breeders, researchers, and veterinarians.
