Introduction to the GI-MAP
Diagnostic Solutions Laboratory is pleased to partner with you to bring true ADVANCES in microbial testing. Our commitment to laboratory medicine is to utilize proven methodologies that are accurate and reliable.
The GI-MAP stool test utilizes cutting edge, Quantitative PCR technology to provide a true DNA/PCR based stool test. This technology has high sensitivity, specificity and a rapid turnaround.
The GI Pathogens section includes Bacteria Pathogens, Parasitic Pathogens and Viral Pathogens.
Continuing with this platform, the GI-MAP measures:
- H. pylori & Virulence Factors
- Commensal/Keystone Bacteria
- Opportunistic/Overgrowth Microbes
- Fungi/Yeast
- Viruses
- Parasites
- H. pylori
And, the Plus refers to immunologic markers for GI health and function including SIgA, Elastase, Calprotectin, Eosinophil Activation Protein, and Anti-gliadin testing. Zonulin is also available as an add-on.
