Cream Dilution Gene
The Cream Dilution gene is responsible for the Palomino and Cremello coat colour of genotypically chestnut horses, for the Buckskin and Perlino coat colour of genotypically bay horses and for the smoky black and smoky cream coat colour of genotypically black horses.

The tests are performed out of EDTA whole blood (0.5 ml) or cotton swabs. These cotton swabs are available upon request. Testing is performed a few times per week at Laboklin. The results are due about one week after arrival of the sample in our laboratory.
