SEOUL, South
Korea, May 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- On the 23rd,
K-PET ( http://k-pet.fourdpocket.com/) announced the development of
a new pet disease prevention solution, tentatively named K-PET,
utilizing genetic analysis technology.
Despite the rapid growth of the domestic pet
market, pets face significant challenges in disease prevention
compared to humans, often resulting in shorter lifespans or
abandonment. To tackle these issues, K-PET aims to support disease
prevention and extend the healthy lifespans of pets through cancer
and disease genetic testing.
The process for genetic disease testing involves
remotely collecting cells from pets, followed by RT-PCR to detect
genetic mutations and DNA profiling. Pet owners can then review the
results and receive consultations through an app.
Furthermore, K-PET plans to offer a comprehensive
one-stop service covering the entire lifecycle of pets. This
includes providing information on nearby veterinary clinics, a
shopping mall for supplements and pet food, insurance options, and
funeral services.
Kim Hee-tae, CEO
of K-PET, stated, "K-PET offers disease genetic information through
PCR testing of pet DNA. By preventing potential diseases through
remote genetic testing, we aim to contribute to not just the
extension of lifespans but the extension of healthy lifespans for
pets."
