Antibiotic Resistance Gene Testing
Select an effective antibiotic regimen based on identification of potential antibiotic resistance.
GTI Laboratories has developed tests to identify genetic variations that signal the presence of pathogens resistant to antibiotics.
Genetic variations are defense mechanisms that can cause drugs to be ineffective and are easily passed to other pathogens.
Antibiotic effectiveness has been greatly compromised by ability of pathogens to develop antibiotic resistance.
Early identification of potentially resistant pathogens helps provide confidence to prescribe the most effective therapy for the patient.
