GENLABS

GENLABS s.r.o. is a genetic laboratory that performs DNA tests, mainly from buccal swabs or saliva, with blood used for food sensitivity tests. Test areas include nutrigenomics, pharmacogenomics, predispositions to cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases, coeliac disease, lactose intolerance and sports genetics. Ready-made test packages are sold alongside individually assembled test combinations. The tests are not diagnostic and provide genetic information for preventive care or further expert assessment.

Customers include self-paying private individuals who order tests through the e-shop without a doctor's referral, physicians and other professionals who order pharmacogenomic, nutrigenomic and predisposition testing, and families who order paternity tests. Paternity testing is offered in a forensic variant with an expert opinion and an informational variant without one. Revenue comes from test sales through the e-shop and from laboratory services.

The company was founded in 2013 and has been based at the Jihočeský vědeckotechnický park in České Budějovice since 2020. Since 2014 it has worked with the Faculty of Science and the Faculty of Health and Social Studies of the University of South Bohemia on teaching, internships and supervised theses.
