Women’s Health (WH) Molecular Testing

The Genesis LabsWomen’s Health (WH) Molecular Test uses the most advanced nanoscale multiplexed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology to test for nine common sexually transmitted pathogens, four healthy vaginal constituents, eleven bacterial vaginosis associated flora, four aerobic vaginitis flora, and seven Candidiasis-related Candida spp. The human vaginal environment is highly dependent upon community-based consortia equilibria and traditional methods (culture and microscopy) are subjective and lacking in sensitivity and specificity1. Other on-market molecular methods suffer from limited flora coverage and throughput capacity2. The Genesis Labs Women’s Health (WH) Molecular Test better categorizes and profiles the existing flora giving the physician unparalleled surveillance capabilities.

Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) Targets

  • Chlamydia trachomatis
  • Neisseria gonorrhoeae
  • Trichomonas vaginalis
  • Herpes simplex virus 1
  • Herpes simplex virus 2
  • Mycoplasma genitalium

Genesis Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) Panel

Bacterial Vaginosis with Lactobacilli Microbiota

(L.crispatus, L. gasseri, and L. jensenii alone, or as consortium colonizers, predominate the flora in healthy vaginal microbiomes. It is also common for vaginal flora to contain L. iners. It is important to note that L. iners may be present in both normal and transitional vaginal environments.)

(Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is characterized by the replacement of Lactobacilli species with anerobic flora. Presence of anaerobic flora and depletion of Lactobacilli species suggests abnormal population dynamics within the vaginal environment. BV is associated with the increased risk of pre term birth, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).)

  • Atopobium vaginae
  • Gardnerella vaginalis
  • Lactobacillus crispatus
  • Lactobacillus gasseri
  • Lactobacillus iners
  • Lactobacillus jensenii

Candidiasis Complete Panel

Candidiasis is a fungal infection caused by Candida species overgrowth. While Candida species do exist as normal constituents of human microflora, overcolonization can lead to infection. A common example of this overcolonization state is observed in Vulvovaginitis (common vaginal yeast infection).

  • Candida albicans
  • Candida dublinesis
  • Candida glabrata
  • Candida krusei
  • Candida lusitaniae
  • Candida parapsilosis
  • Candida tropicalis
