TOXICOLOGY
Toxicology is the study of the effects of chemical, biological, and physical agents on living organisms, particularly humans. Scientists and researchers working in this field measure and analyze substances, particles, pollutants, and bacterium to determine the potential threats they pose to humans and other living organisms. .

TYPES OF TESTING:
Qualitative Testing
The EIA (Enzyme ImmunoAssay) provides presumptive testing for drug groups. Often called “screening,” results are qualitative and result as positive or negative. Results from this method are presumptive and should never be considered a final result without LC/MS confirmation testing.
Quantitative Testing
The LC/MS (Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry) provides confirmatory testing for a specific drug. This technique relies on the principles of LC/MS to separate mixtures with multiple components and provide molecular identity of individual components with high specificity and detection. Results are numerical and identify the exact drug and amount of drug detected in the urine sample.
OUR PRODUCTS
Urinary Track
Infection (UTI)
UTI testing by PCR can detect a broader range of organisms and helps identify potential polyinfections.
STI Testing
STI testing by PCR identifies pathogens by DNA/RNA which can make it possible to detect disease earlier, with more accuracy, and a higher sensitivity than traditional testing methods.
Toxicology
Testing
Fast, accurate, and reliable toxicology results with lower drug cut-off concentrations to catch low positive results.
Pharmacogenetics
The science of how genes affect responses to many commonly prescribed medicines, allows your Physician to make personalized medication treatment decisions for you.
Respiratory Pathogen Panel (RPP)
The Respiratory Panel enables quick detection of viral and bacterial pathogens allowing faster treatment time, more accurate results, and can help avoid unnecessary patient hospitalization.
Gastrointestinal Panel
We offer a comprehensive molecular test for Gastrointestinal pathogens that can enhance patient care with evidence-based diagnostics.
Wound Panel
We offer a comprehensive molecular test for Wound/Nail pathogens that can enhance patient care with evidence-based diagnostics.
