The BioFire Respiratory Panel 2.1 is a rapid molecular test that uses a single nasopharyngeal swab to simultaneously identify 22 common respiratory viruses and bacteria. By providing highly accurate results in approximately 45 minutes, it helps clinicians quickly determine the specific cause of respiratory symptoms to guide effective treatment

The Placental Growth Factor (PlGF) test is a blood test used during pregnancy to measure the levels of a protein that supports the growth of healthy blood vessels in the placenta. It is primarily used to assess the risk of or help diagnose preeclampsia and to monitor placental function in pregnancies where complications like fetal growth restriction are suspected.

The sFlt-1 test measures the level of a specific protein in the blood that, when elevated, is associated with an increased risk of developing preeclampsia during pregnancy. It is frequently used as a ratio alongside PlGF to help clinicians assess the risk of pregnancy complications and monitor placental health.

The CA 72.4 test is a blood-based tumor marker analysis used primarily to monitor the progression of gastric (stomach) cancer and to detect potential recurrence after treatment. It measures specific proteins in the blood that may be elevated in patients with gastrointestinal cancers, though it is used alongside other clinical evaluations rather than as a standalone screening tool

The Smith (Sm) antibody test is an autoimmune blood screening used to detect specific autoantibodies that are highly characteristic of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Identifying these antibodies helps clinicians confirm a lupus diagnosis, as they are rarely found in other autoimmune or connective tissue diseases.

The TB PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) test is a rapid molecular diagnostic tool that detects the DNA of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in a clinical specimen, such as sputum. It provides a quick and highly sensitive way to confirm the presence of tuberculosis, often identifying the bacteria within hours rather than waiting days or weeks for traditional culture methods.

The GeneXpert test is a rapid, automated molecular diagnostic assay that uses PCR technology to detect the presence of specific pathogens, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis or rifampin resistance, in a clinical sample. It is highly valued for its ability to provide accurate, actionable results in approximately two hours, allowing for immediate initiation of appropriate treatment.

Reports in 1 Day

The TB MDR Screen (LPA) is a rapid molecular test used to identify Mycobacterium tuberculosis and simultaneously detect mutations that confer resistance to first-line drugs like rifampicin and isoniazid. It provides essential information to clinicians to help select an effective treatment regimen for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB)

Reports in 1 Day

The TB XDR Screen (LPA) is a advanced molecular test used to identify extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis by detecting mutations associated with resistance to both first-line and second-line anti-TB medications. It is a critical diagnostic tool that allows healthcare providers to quickly determine an appropriate treatment strategy for complex, resistant cases of the disease.

Reports in 1 Day

The HLA-B27 PCR test is a genetic analysis that detects the presence of the HLA-B27 antigen on the surface of white blood cells. This genetic marker is strongly associated with an increased risk of developing certain autoimmune inflammatory conditions, such as ankylosing spondylitis and other forms of spondyloarthritis.

This test uses light microscopy to visually examine a blood smear for the presence of abnormally shaped, "sickle-shaped" red blood cells. It is used to screen for or assist in the diagnosis of sickle cell anemia, a hereditary blood disorder that affects the transport of oxygen throughout the body.

Reports in 1 Day

The hMPV PCR test is a molecular diagnostic method that detects the genetic material of the human metapneumovirus in a respiratory specimen, such as a nasal or throat swab. It provides a rapid and highly specific identification of the virus, helping healthcare providers determine the cause of respiratory infections to guide appropriate clinical management.

Reports in 1 Day

Alpha-2 Macroglobulin is a large plasma protein that functions as an important protease inhibitor and is involved in the regulation of the immune system and blood coagulation. Measuring its levels in the blood is often used as a diagnostic marker to assess liver function, screen for kidney disease, or evaluate specific inflammatory conditions.

Reports in 1 Day

The aluminum test measures the concentration of aluminum in the blood to detect potential toxicity, which is primarily a concern for individuals with chronic kidney disease or those receiving long-term intravenous (parenteral) nutrition. It helps identify excessive accumulation of this metal, which can lead to neurological, bone, or blood-related health complications.

The 1,5-Anhydroglucitol test measures a sugar substance in the blood to assess your average blood glucose levels over the past few days. It serves as a short-term monitoring tool, particularly useful for identifying rapid blood sugar fluctuations that may not be captured by a standard HbA1c test.
