Gastroenteritis is a blanket term describing inflammatory infections of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. These infections can lead to severe dehydration, abdominal pain, and significant disruption to your daily life. Because symptoms of viral, bacterial, and parasitic GI infections often look identical, One Health Specialty Labs provides the molecular clarity needed to identify the root cause of your distress.
Using our state-of-the-art diagnostic platform, we can screen for a wide variety of GI pathogens from a single stool sample. This rapid, all-in-one approach is far more effective than traditional cultures, which can take days to yield results. Our goal is to provide your healthcare provider with the data required to manage your symptoms effectively and prevent the spread of infection to others.

Our GI panels utilize PCR technology to deliver a highly sensitive and specific analysis of the pathogens living in the digestive tract.

Armed with this information, your provider can make immediate, informed decisions about your treatment and hydration needs.
