Gastrointestinal Pathogen Panel

  • Qualitative multiplexed nucleic acid-based in vitro diagnostic test 
  • Simultaneously detect and identify 17 gastrointestinal pathogens including viral, bacterial, and parasitic organisms that cause diarrhea in a single test
Gastrointestinal Pathogen Panel

The BioCode® Gastrointestinal Pathogen Panel* utilizes proven Barcoded Magnetic Beads technology to detect specific gastrointestinal microbial nucleic acid from individuals exhibiting signs and symptoms of infections. The BioCode® Gastrointestinal Pathogen Panel Assay is a flexible, cost effective, comprehensive molecular test that detects and identifies the 17 most common causative pathogens in raw stool specimens or stool in Cary-Blair medium from symptomatic patients.

The Applied BioCode® Gastrointestinal Pathogen Panel with MDx-3000 system can identify the following:
