GI-Map (GI Microbial Assay Plus)

The GI-MAP (Microbial Assay Plus) is unique in the field of comprehensive stool testing. It relies exclusively on quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) technology to detect parasites, bacteria, fungi, and more, by targeting the specific DNA of the organisms tested. The GI-MAP™ (GI-Microbial Assay Plus) quantitatively assesses a patient’s microbiome with attention to bacterial, parasitic, and viral pathogens that can cause disease, disrupt the normal microbial balance, and contribute to chronic GI illness.

Test kits include specimen collection instructions, test request form, collection tray, Carey Blair transport medium, specimen bag, gloves, absorbent material, and a pre-paid Clinical Pak mailer.
