Service Description

Chlamydia/Neisseria gonorrhea RNA, TMA: Using transcription-mediated amplification, this test detects the RNA of the bacteria causing chlamydia and gonorrhea. These are common bacterial STDs which can have serious health repercussions if not addressed. Hepatitis A Antibody Total: This test detects antibodies produced in response to the Hepatitis A virus. The presence of these antibodies indicates either a past or current infection. Hepatitis B Surface Antibody Qualitative: This test measures the antibodies produced after exposure to the Hepatitis B virus, indicating immunity either from past infection or vaccination. Hepatitis B Core Antibody Total: This test identifies antibodies against the core antigen of the Hepatitis B virus, indicating either a past or ongoing infection. Hepatitis B Surface Antigen with Reflex to Confirmation: It detects the surface antigen of the Hepatitis B virus, indicating a current infection. A reflex to confirmation ensures accurate results. Hepatitis C Antibody with Reflex to HCV, RNA Quantitative Real-Time PCR: Initial screening for antibodies against the Hepatitis C virus. If positive, a reflex test quantifies the amount of virus in the blood. Herpes Simplex Virus 1/2 IgG Type Specific Antibodies: This test differentiates between HSV-1 (usually oral herpes) and HSV-2 (usually genital herpes) by identifying the specific antibodies against each. RPR with Reflex to Titer: This is a screening test for syphilis. If reactive, a "reflex to titer" quantifies the amount of reagin in the blood, providing insights into the disease's activity
