Malaria IgG Antibody
This blood test detects IgG antibodies produced by your immune system in response to a past or chronic malaria infection. Unlike tests that look for the parasite itself, this test indicates exposure to malaria at some point, rather than an active, current infection. It helps assess previous exposure or long-term immune response.
Malaria Screening (Smear + Rapid)
Combined malaria detection using both rapid diagnostic test (RDT) and microscopic blood smear examination. Essential for travelers returning from endemic regions.
MALARIAL PARASITE (DIRECT SMEAR)
This test involves examining a drop of your blood directly under a microscope to look for malaria parasites. A thin smear allows for species identification, while a thick smear helps detect the presence of parasites even when they are few. It's a gold standard method for diagnosing active malaria infection.
MALARIAL PARASITE ANTIGEN (MP Ag)
This test detects specific proteins (antigens) released by the malaria parasite in your blood. It's a quick way to find out if you currently have a malaria infection, especially if you have symptoms like fever, chills, and headache.
Methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Screening
This screening test checks for the presence of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria on your body, usually through a swab from your nose or skin. MRSA is a type of staph infection that is resistant to several common antibiotics.
MICRO FILARIA
This blood test looks for the presence of microfilariae, which are the microscopic larval forms of parasitic worms. These worms cause a condition called filariasis, which can lead to various symptoms depending on the type of worm and affected body part.
Microsporidium Detection by smear examination
This test involves a microscopic examination of a stool sample to detect the presence of Microsporidium parasites. These tiny organisms can cause gastrointestinal infections.
Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (MTB) Qualitative by Realtime PCR
This test uses Realtime PCR technology to detect the genetic material (DNA) of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis, the bacteria causing tuberculosis. It's a highly sensitive method to identify the presence of the bacteria in a blood sample.
PAS Stain Blood
The PAS (Periodic Acid-Schiff) stain is a special laboratory technique applied to blood cells to identify specific substances like glycogen. It helps healthcare providers examine the characteristics of your blood cells more closely.
PAS Stain Bone Marrow
The PAS (Periodic Acid-Schiff) stain is a specialized technique applied to bone marrow cells to highlight specific components like glycogen. This helps in the detailed examination of bone marrow cell morphology.
PROCALCITONIN (PCT)
The Procalcitonin (PCT) test measures the level of procalcitonin in your blood. This protein is typically produced in very small amounts, but its levels can rise significantly in response to severe bacterial infections and sepsis. It helps doctors assess the severity of an infection.
RESPIRATORY SYNCYTIAL VIRUS (RSV)
The Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) test detects the presence of RSV, a common virus that causes respiratory tract infections. It's particularly important for infants, young children, and older adults who are at higher risk for severe illness.
