DNA PCR Stool Analysis
The GI-MAP™ (GI-Microbial Assay Plus)

The GI-MAP™ (GI-Microbial Assay Plus) quantitatively assesses a patient’s microbiome from a single stool sample with particular attention to microbes that may be disturbing the normal microbial balance and may contribute to perturbations in the Gastrointestinal (GI) flora or illness. This panel is a comprehensive collection of microbial targets as well as immune and digestive markers. It screens for pathogenic bacteria, commensal bacteria, opportunistic pathogens, fungi, viruses, and parasites. The Laboratory utilizes proven qPCR technology with high Sensitivity and Specificity to provide quantitative, accurate, and reliable results.

The GI-MAP™ includes these analytes:

• Bacterial Pathogens
• Viral Pathogens
• Parasitic Pathogens
• Parasitic Protozoa
• Parasitic Worms
• Normal Bacterial Flora
• Opportunistic Bacteria
• H. pylori with Virulence Factors
• Fungi/Yeast
• Digestion
• Immune Response
• Inflammation
• Antibiotic Resistance Genes
• Add-on option: Zonulin (Leaky Gut marker)
