Our PCR Wound Panel

Our PCR wound test is designed to accurately assess wound infections with remarkable precision. Utilizing the powerful polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, our test amplifies and analyzes genetic material from patient wound samples, enabling rapid detection of a wide range of bacterial and fungal pathogens. By identifying the causative agents responsible for wound infections, our PCR wound test offers healthcare providers valuable insights for targeted treatment decisions and optimal wound care management to promote healing and prevent complications.
