SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED
INFECTIONS (STI)
Our laboratory offers advanced molecular testing for the precise detection of pathogens associated with sexually transmitted infections (STIs). STIs can manifest with a range of symptoms, from mild discomfort to severe health consequences, including infertility. Early and accurate identification is crucial as many STIs can initially present asymptomatically, allowing for prompt treatment to prevent complications and transmission.
Unlike traditional methods, our molecular testing platform employs state-of-the-art techniques such as Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS), ensuring high sensitivity and specificity in identifying pathogens. This approach not only detects current infections but also identifies emerging antibiotic resistance patterns, guiding clinicians towards effective treatment strategies tailored to individual patients.
Augustus Laboratories, we are committed to delivering rapid results within 24-48 hours, empowering healthcare providers with actionable insights to initiate timely interventions. Our dedication to precision diagnostics and comprehensive pathogen profiling distinguishes us, ensuring superior clinical outcomes and patient care in the management of STIs.
At Augustus Laboratories, our STI testing utilizes a simple urine sample and can effectively detect a wide array of pathogens, including:
BACTERIAL
- Chlamydia trachomatis
- Neisseria gonorrhoeae
- Haemophilus ducreyi
- Treponema pallidum
- Mycoplasma genitalium
PARASITIC
- Trichomonas vaginalis
ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE
- Class C Beta-lactams Resistance
- Class A and C Beta-lactams Resistance
- Macrolide Resistance
- Quinolone Resistance
- Tetracycline Resistance
VIRAL
- HSV1, HSV2
- Human papillomavirus type 16, 18, 45
