Eliminate the guesswork in diagnosing and treating Genito/STI infections
Southwest Labs’ Genito/STI assay utilizes the latest in quantitative RT-PCR (real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction) technology to rapidly and reliably analyze patient samples. Rapidly detect and differentiate ~99%, this assay includes testing for the most common bacterial, viral, and fungal pathogens
