Comments:

Very good density well supported by an excellent fiber population differential with excellent SD’s and a good S:P ratio make this a breeding female of significant potential.

The results of this test are from a minimum 500 follicle count of a biopsy provided by the owner and

processed by a national histology laboratory operating in California, USA, read through both a

specifically adapted imaging program and laboratory operator, with the data moderated to account

for shrinkage in the processing of the biopsy.
