RESPIRATORY PATHOGEN PANEL

Respiratory Pathogen Panel

Comprehensive Detection

 

In the wake of growing respiratory diseases, timely and accurate diagnosis has never been more critical. Our state-of-the-art respiratory pathogen panels are designed to meet this need, providing rapid and comprehensive detection of the most common to the rarest respiratory pathogens.

​

Respiratory pathogen panels are advanced diagnostic tools that simultaneously test for multiple respiratory pathogens from a single sample. Utilizing cutting-edge multiplex PCR technology, these panels can identify a wide range of viruses and bacteria responsible for respiratory infections, ensuring a holistic approach to diagnosis.

Respiratory Pathogens, Symptoms, and RT-PCR Testing

Respiratory pathogens, including viruses and bacteria such as Influenza, SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), and Streptococcus pneumoniae, are primary causes of infections that affect the nose, throat, and lungs. Symptoms of these infections can range from mild to severe and often include coughing, fever, shortness of breath, sore throat, and fatigue. Given the similarity in symptoms across different respiratory infections, precise identification of the causative pathogen is crucial for effective treatment and management.

RT-PCR (Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction) testing emerges as a gold standard in this scenario, offering a highly sensitive and specific method for detecting the genetic material of pathogens. By directly identifying the virus or bacterium responsible for the infection, RT-PCR testing facilitates timely and appropriate clinical decisions, significantly impacting patient care and infection control measures. At ASAP Diagnostics, our commitment to utilizing advanced RT-PCR technology underscores our dedication to providing accurate, reliable, and rapid diagnostic results, ensuring our clients receive the highest standard of care in respiratory health management.
