Complete Microbiome Mapping Test

$660

The test kit includes an instruction booklet on how to complete the test, as well as important pre-collection information.

The Complete Microbiome Mapping panel provides an in-depth analysis of the gut microbiota and gastrointestinal (GI) health. It includes the detection of parasites, worms, opportunistic bacteria, fungi/yeast, bacterial pathogens, viral pathogens, and beneficial bacteria. It also evaluates essential gastrointestinal tract markers that highlight the strengths or weaknesses of gut function. This comprehensive assessment provides us with a robust understanding of your gut health, helping to identify microbial imbalances and GI dysfunction that may contribute to both local and systemic health conditions.

This panel utilises advanced PCR technology ensuring precise detection of microbial DNA, alongside biochemical markers that provide insights into inflammation, digestion, intestinal permeability, and microbial metabolism. Markers such as zonulin and calprotectin assess gut barrier integrity and inflammation, respectively, while short chain fatty acids and beta-glucuronidase reflect microbial metabolic activity. The Complete Microbiome Mapping is ideal for investigating conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), autoimmune disorders, and metabolic disorders. Identifying root causes and dysbiosis guises targeted interventions such as probiotics, dietary changes, and antimicrobial therapies for improved gut and systemic health.
