We perform a variety of traditional sensitivity tests, as well as customized antibiotic panels. All Microbiology testing is performed on-site.
Clinical trials have been performed or are ongoing in the following areas:

Bacteriology - routine cultures, traditional antibiotic sensitivity tests, customized antibiotic panels, MIC testing

Mycology - antifungal susceptibility testing, general fungal cultures, dermatophyte cultures

Mycobacteriology - routine cultures

Virology - herpes virus culture and typing, respiratory virus isolation and identification

Parasitology - ova and parasite exam, parasite antigen detection, trichomonas culture

Molecular Diagnostics - RNA/DNA extractions, qualitative and quantiative PCR, Multiplex PCR

A robust staff of PhDs and MS level clinical laboratory managers.
