What is Candidosis, Real time PCR?

This Real-time PCR test is designed to rapidly detect the presence of *Candida* species, the yeast responsible for candidosis (thrush or yeast infection). It identifies the fungal DNA, offering a quick and precise diagnosis of the infection from a urine sample.

Why is this test important?

Real-time PCR for candidosis is vital for prompt diagnosis, especially in cases of suspected systemic or recurrent infections. Early detection allows healthcare providers to initiate appropriate antifungal treatment quickly, which is crucial for preventing the spread and severity of the infection.

How to Prepare

A mid-stream urine sample is required. Please follow any specific collection instructions provided.
