• SPEED: Results are released within 24 hours of sample receipt in comparison to 3-7 days through culture testing

  • SUBSTANTIAL TEST MENU: Detect up to 16 UTIs, 14 STIs, and 5 antibiotic resistant targets

  • SENSITIVITY: PCR testing is significantly more sensitive than standard culture testing

  • SUSCEPTIBILITY TESTING: Antibiotic Resistance Testing information quickly and simultaneously streamlines treatment options, reducing the possibility of further complications

  • SIMPLICITY: Simple, easy-to-read report providing all information necessary for diagnosis and treatment

HELPING PEOPLE IS OUR ETHOS

URINARY TRACT INFECTION (UTI) TESTING:

• Defined by the presence of bacteria in the urine

• UTIs are infections in the urine system (kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra)

• Women are at a greater risk of developing a UTI

COMMON SYMPTOMS

SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTION (STI) TESTING:

  • Infections passed from one person to another through sexual contact
  • Infections that happen when bacteria, parasites, or viruses enter the body
  • Those infected may not have symptoms but can still pass infections on to others

ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE TESTING:

  • The measurement of the susceptibility of bacteria to antibiotics (to guide treatment)

  • Can be determined by the detection of genes that are known to cause antibiotic resistance

  • When bacteria is resistance to treatment, infections can become much more dangerous

As a CAP-accredited laboratory, all of our testing methods follow rigorous requirements and CAP-approved validation standards. We participate in proficiency testing (PT) programs to ensure the accuracy of our test results and the highest standards for patient care and safety.
