Molecular Fungal Testing uses RealTime PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) and specific, patented DNA probes to accurately and quantitatively determine the presence of a variety of pathogenic and/or toxigenic fungi. Testing can be done for Aspergillus, Penicillium or Stachybotrys using tissue, nasal wash, bronchoalveolar lavage, or sputum. Urine is used for the Candida Panel.
