H. pylori Profile
Definitive Results from One Stool Sample
Our comprehensive H. pylori DNA Profile features qPCR Molecular Technology. DNA based testing offers significant advantages to other methods. Including testing for H. pylori Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Virulence Factors.
Patient treatment efficacy is greatly improved with phenotypic antibiotic resistance testing to guide treatment protocols. Additionally, Virulence Factor testing can help to identify the symptoms that H. pylori is contributing to and potential to cause disease.

Clinical Information
H. pylori DNA Stool Profile, including testing for Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Virulence Factors.
Methodology
Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR), is a molecular DNA laboratory technique. PCR amplifies the gene targets and can generate thousands to millions of copies of a single target DNA sequence. This increases the sensitivity and specificity of the test greatly.
