Ongoing Testing
PCR-based testing
- Dengue, chikungunya, and Zika viruses (trioplex assay)
- Leptospira spp
- Orientia tsutsumagushi (scrub typhus)
- Dengue serotyping
Antigen-based testing
- Streptococcus pneumoniae urinary antigen rapid test
- Influenza A/B rapid test
- SARS-CoV-2 rapid test
In addition, given our prior experience and research studies, we have the capacity to conduct the following testing:
Viral testing
- SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) PCR
- Influenza PCR
- Adenovirus PCR
- Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) PCR
- Dengue NS1 rapid antigen test
- Dengue IgM/ IgG ELISA test
Bacterial testing
- Microbiological identification of bacterial organisms using diverse human specimen types such as sputum, blood, pus, and urine
- Microbiological identification of bacterial organisms from samples collected from animals, food, soil, and water
- Antibiotic susceptibility testing by Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion and E-tests (including for multidrug-resistant organisms such as MRSA and ESBL+ organisms)
- S.aureus identification by PCR
- Spa typing and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) for MRSA by PCR
- Streptococcus pneumoniae serotyping by PCR
