Genetic Testing

Know your herd from the inside

Built for farms and herd owners: comprehensive genetic testing from a single sample per camel — a verified identity, an inbreeding coefficient as a clear percentage, and a kinship map linking your herd together.

1,450 AED per sample — final price, no additional fees, including any applicable tax

Why this test?
1

Protect your investment

The genetic fingerprint is conclusive proof of a camel's identity and lineage — protection when you buy, sell, or enter races.

2

Smarter mating decisions

Know the kinship score before mating, and avoid the hidden weakness that shows up in fertility, growth, and immunity.

The services

What do you get from one sample?

From a single sample per camel: a verified genetic identity, confirmed lineage, a kinship score, and the right mating recommendations for your herd.

01

Genetic identity (the DNA fingerprint)

A genetic fingerprint that stays with each of your camels for life and cannot be forged or swapped — a code scanned to confirm its identity at any time.

MDN-ZRW289

A code scanned to confirm the camel's identity at any time.

02

Inbreeding coefficient

Mating close relatives weakens fertility, growth, and immunity. A clear percentage, with a practical recommendation for the right match.

The genomic relationship

We map the genomic relationship between all the camels whose samples we receive — a kinship map that grows with every new sample, revealing how your animals truly relate.

The genomic relationship

See who is related to whom in your herd.

A written pedigree can be incomplete or simply wrong. The test measures the actual relationship between every pair of camels in your herd, and the map grows with each new sample.

Kinship around a single camel — the closer the ring, the closer the relationship, with a percentage for each counterpart and the relationship it is equivalent to.

How does it work?

Three steps, starting at your farm.

01

The sample

Our representative visits your farm or location and collects a simple sample from your camels — hair or a blood sample.

02

The analysis

The sample is analysed in a specialist laboratory to the highest international standards.

03

The report

Samples ship to the lab in consolidated batches. Your result arrives within 7–9 weeks of sample collection — a clear, plain-language report: scores, colours, and practical mating recommendations — as a PDF, recorded in the Madani app.

FAQ

Questions owners ask

Does the test harm the camel?

No. The sample is a few hairs or a small blood sample, and it takes only seconds.

My camel has a brand and a microchip — why do I need the genetic fingerprint?

A chip says "this is camel number so-and-so"; the genetic fingerprint proves both its identity and its lineage, and it cannot be forged or swapped. It is also the foundation of every other result in the report.

Can the test tell me how my camel will perform in a race?

No test can accurately predict a race result — beware of anyone who promises you that. What we provide is a verified genetic foundation that helps you make better breeding decisions.

Does the test detect genetic diseases?

The test does not diagnose specific diseases — known disease mutations in camels are still under research worldwide. It does reveal the biggest source of genetic weakness, close inbreeding, and guides you to avoid it before it happens.

Do I need to test the sire and dam to prove parentage?

Yes — proving parentage requires testing both parents, or their presence in the genetic registry. The more camels enrolled, the more kinship links we can detect automatically.

When will I receive the report?

The Madani team visits to take the sample within 14 days of your order, and samples ship to the lab in consolidated batches. Your report arrives within 7–9 weeks of sample collection, as a PDF over WhatsApp, and is also recorded in the Madani app.

Is the service available outside the UAE?

The service is currently available in the United Arab Emirates only; we are working to expand coverage gradually.
