Triage® Micro Parasite Panel

The Triage® Micro Parasite Panel is an enzyme immunoassay used to detect antigens specific for Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica/dispar, and Cryptosporidium parvum in fresh or freshly frozen unfixed human fecal specimens. This test is used as an aid in the diagnosis of intestinal parasitic disease.

Benefits

  • Versatile: The Triage® Micro Parasite Panel is the only panel that delivers simultaneous, rapid results for each of three parasites: G. lamblia, E. histolytica/E. dispar, and C. parvum.

  • Rapid: The test yields results in 15 minutes.

  • Convenient: The test is simple to interpret and includes both negative and positive controls.

COPD Program

COPDChronic obstructive pulmonary disease is one of the most common lung diseases and primarily caused by smoking. Our COPD Program enables participants to identify and control the symptoms of lung infections that could lead to hospitalization, use inhaled medications properly, understand the harmful effects of smoking, and eradicate their dependency on nicotine. Our COPD program has reduced hospitalizations by 8% and healthcare costs related to the disease by 6%.
