PARASITE TESTS

ABOUT

Welcome to ParasiteTest.com: Your Trusted Partner in Parasitic Infection Detection

At ParasiteTest.com, we provide state-of-the-art diagnostic testing for a wide range of parasitic infections, including both protozoan parasites and parasitic worms, using cutting-edge qPCR DNA testing technology. Our commitment to delivering the highest level of accuracy, efficiency, and patient care makes us a leader in parasitic disease testing. Whether you’re dealing with digestive issues, unexplained fatigue, or more severe symptoms, we offer reliable and comprehensive testing that helps you get back on track quickly.

What We Offer

We specialize in testing for a wide array of parasites, from single-celled protozoans to multi-cellular parasitic worms. Using qPCR (quantitative polymerase chain reaction) technology, we can detect even the most elusive parasites with unparalleled sensitivity and specificity. Our laboratory offers testing for the following parasites:

  • Protozoa (Single-celled Parasites):

    • Dientamoeba fragilis
    • Blastocystis hominis
    • Giardia lamblia
    • Cryptosporidium spp.
    • Entamoeba histolytica
    • Cyclospora cayetanensis
    • Entamoeba dispar
    • Enterocytozoon bieneusi
    • Encephalitozoon intestinalis
  • Parasitic Worms (Helminths):

    • Enterobius vermicularis (Pinworm)
    • Hymenolepis spp. (Dwarf Tapeworm)
    • Taenia spp. (Tapeworm)
    • Ancylostoma spp. and Necator americanus (Hookworms)
    • Ascaris spp. (Roundworm)
    • Strongyloides spp. (Threadworm)
    • Trichuris trichiura (Whipworm)

Each of these parasites can cause a range of health issues, from gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea and abdominal pain to more systemic effects such as fatigue, weight loss, and neurological symptoms. Some, like Taenia solium (pork tapeworm), can even lead to severe complications such as cysticercosis when left untreated.


Why Choose Our Testing?

  1. State-of-the-art qPCR Testing Technology

    Our laboratory uses the most advanced qPCR technology to detect parasitic DNA in patient samples. Unlike traditional methods, which often rely on visual identification or culturing, qPCR provides high accuracy and faster results. This method amplifies the genetic material of the parasite, enabling us to detect even low levels of infection, which may be missed by other diagnostic methods. By employing qPCR, we not only ensure higher sensitivity but also greater specificity in identifying the exact parasite causing the symptoms.

  2. Comprehensive Range of Tests

    We understand that parasites can manifest in many different ways, depending on the species and the individual’s immune system. Our comprehensive testing options allow us to identify a wide range of parasitic infections, whether you’re dealing with a protozoan or a parasitic worm. We offer tests individually or in combination, allowing you to tailor the testing to your symptoms or concerns.

  3. Highly Sensitive and Accurate Results

    Our qPCR technology has revolutionized parasitic testing. It provides rapid, reliable, and quantifiable results, helping us detect infections early, before they cause further harm. Early detection is crucial, as many parasitic infections can be asymptomatic for long periods, potentially leading to chronic conditions or serious health complications if left untreated. With our testing, you can be assured that you are receiving the most accurate diagnosis possible.

  4. Quick Turnaround Time

    We understand that time is of the essence when it comes to your health. Our advanced testing methods allow us to deliver results within hours, not days. Whether you are struggling with persistent gastrointestinal issues, fatigue, or more severe symptoms, we aim to provide you with prompt results, so you can take immediate action.

  5. Expertise and Experience

    Our laboratory is staffed by a team of experienced microbiologists, pathologists, and lab technicians who specialize in parasitic infections. With years of expertise in diagnosing complex cases, we are committed to offering the highest standard of service. Our team is constantly updating their knowledge and skills to keep up with the latest advancements in parasitology, ensuring that you receive the best care possible.

  6. Confidential and Secure Testing

    We take your privacy seriously. All samples are processed in a secure, confidential manner, and results are shared only with you or your designated healthcare provider. You can trust us to protect your personal and health information throughout the diagnostic process.

Why Testing for Parasites Is Important

Many parasitic infections go undiagnosed because their symptoms are easily mistaken for other illnesses, such as food poisoning, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or other gastrointestinal disorders. Chronic symptoms like bloating, diarrhea, fatigue, and abdominal pain can be indicators of parasitic infection, but they can also be linked to other conditions.

By offering precise and comprehensive testing, we help you identify the root cause of your symptoms, enabling you to receive targeted treatment. Whether you’ve recently traveled abroad, have been experiencing unexplained digestive issues, or have a compromised immune system, accurate parasitic testing is a crucial step toward regaining your health.
