Section 110.10 Definitions
"Accession" is one animal or group of animals or samples from the same location, representative of a single disease or disease problem, and received at the laboratory on the same day. "C" indicates the test is performed at the Animal Disease Laboratory-Centralia. "G" indicates the test is performed at the Animal Disease Laboratory-Galesburg. "S" indicates the test is performed at the State-Federal Serology Laboratory, Springfield. ANon-agricultural samples@ includes all samples of municipal and private water submitted for potability testing and/or chemical or bacteriological screening; all samples from members of the canine or feline species for any type of procedure or testing; all samples submitted for meats chemistry analysis, other than those submitted by Illinois Department of Agriculture personnel; and all environmental samples (soil, water or vegetation) not involved with production of a cash or feed crop. "Specimen" is any animal or plant tissue or substance to which a test or procedure is applied. (Source: Amended at 21 Ill. Reg. 17034, effective January 1, 1998)
Section 110.20 Submitting Specimens
Specimens shall be sent or delivered to the laboratory designated as performing the test. Addresses of the laboratories are as follows:
Animal Disease Laboratory, Shattuc Road, Centralia, Illinois 62801-9284. Animal Disease Laboratory, 2100 South Lake Storey Road, P.O. Box 2110X, Galesburg, Illinois 61402-2100.

Section 110.30 Payment For Laboratory Services
The person requesting the services shall be responsible for payment of laboratory services performed by the Illinois Department of Agriculture.
Laboratory charges are due and payable when billed each month. Laboratory services will not be performed if the account is more than 60
days overdue from the date of billing.
Section 110.40 Tests Not Covered By Fee Schedule
No fee shall be charged for diagnostic tests required by Illinois law or programs herein listed (i.e., testing for bovine brucellosis, swine brucellosis, pullorum-typhoid, equine infectious anemia, U.S.S. Enteritidis Flocks and pseudorabies). However, a charge shall be made for requested end titers on pseudorabies, unless the testing is approved for diagnostic purposes by the United States Department of Agriculture or by the Department. A fee as set forth in Section 110.90 shall be charged on screening samples at the dilution of 1:2 for pseudorabies. The Department shall approve testing for end titers on pseudorabies without charge when the herd is in a special state supervised testing program. See 8 Ill. Adm. Code 110.90 for information on specialty testing situations. (Source: Amended at 20 Ill. Reg. 255, effective January 1, 1996) Section 110.50 Minimum Fees
A minimum accession fee of $5 per accession shall be charged on all accessions originating from Illinois animals, with the exception of samples for trichinosis testing for which the minimum accession fee is $1. If such fees for the individual tests exceed the minimum fee, no minimum fee shall be charged. Persons submitting specimens for which there are no charges for the laboratory procedure shall be exempt from the minimum fee. The necropsy fee is $50 per accession up to four animals for all species and cadavers submitted where more than one test is needed, with an additional $20 for each additional animal. Poultry are exempt from the additional charge for each additional animal over four. If multiple tissue specimens are submitted where more than one test is needed, the fee is $50 per accession for up to four animals with an additional $20 for each additional animal. The necropsy fee and multiple tissue specimens fee will include a test in pathology, microbiology, parasitology and toxicology as indicated by the necropsy. These fees do not include electron microscopy examination, toxicologic screens, water and feed analysis, serology or herd surveys. In cases where only a necropsy is performed without any tests, the fee is $35 plus the disposal fee. The fee for a cosmetic necropsy for cats and dogs is $125 (cases where the owner wants the carcass back). Electron microscopy and toxicologic tests (other than a screen for metals and pesticides) shall be performed only after consultation with and with approval from the person who requested the laboratory services at the fees set forth in this Part. All fees, including the minimum accession and necropsy fee, shall be doubled on all out-of-state owners, unless a specific charge is noted or the sample is referred from another state diagnostic laboratory at which time only the in-state feel will be charged. Serologic tests on paired, acute and convalescent specimens will be billed as one accession at the fee set forth in this Part. Accessions submitted as "rush priority" specimens shall be charged at twice the normal rate. This charge shall apply to any submission requesting service at a rate faster than the normal laboratory routine turnaround time for the requested test (e.g., before the regularly scheduled day, before other samples or on days requiring additional personnel time such as weekends or holidays). For cases where there is no in-state fee (i.e. pseudorabies or bovine or swine brucellosis), the fee shall be as for out-of-state samples. The fee for accessions up to four animals or multiple tissues from up to four animals for the following work-ups will be as indicated, with and additional $15.00 for each additional animal. Poultry are exempt from the additional charge for each additional animal over four. 1) Porcine Abortion Work-up . $75.00 C, G 2) Bovine Abortion Work-up. $75.00 C, G 3) Respiratory or Enteric Diagnostic Work-up . $75.00 C, G 4) Equine Abortion Work-up …………………………………………………………………………………$75.00 C, G 5) Ovine Abortion Work-up……………………………………………………………………………………$75.00 C, G (Source: Amended at 26 Ill.
