dNTP Lab’s Nail Pathogen Panel is a specialized diagnostic tool designed to accurately detect and identify a wide range of fungal and bacterial pathogens that can cause infections in nails. This panel is particularly valuable for diagnosing onychomycosis (fungal nail infections) and bacterial infections that can affect the nails and surrounding tissue.
A common fungal nail infection affecting up to 10% of the global population, causing nail discoloration, thickening, and separation from the nail bed. Accurate diagnosis is crucial, especially in immunocompromised patients.
Less common but can lead to painful conditions like paronychia and complicate fungal infections, requiring early and precise identification for effective treatment.
Comprehensive Detection: The Nail Pathogen Panel uses advanced PCR techniques to detect a wide range of fungal and bacterial pathogens, including dermatophytes, non-dermatophyte molds, yeast, and bacteria.
High Sensitivity and Specificity: PCR testing offers greater accuracy than traditional culture methods, ensuring detection of even low pathogen levels and reducing false negatives.
Streamlined Process: The Nail Pathogen Panel offers a single test for multiple pathogens, reducing the need for multiple tests and saving time and resources.
Cost-Effective: Provides comprehensive analysis in one panel, avoiding costs from misdiagnosis or delayed treatment.
Dermatology and Podiatry Practices: Ideal for frequent nail infection cases.
Hospitals and Clinics: Useful for complicated or recurrent infections, especially in immunocompromised patients.
dNTP Lab Nail Pathogen Panel is an advanced diagnostic tool that ensures accurate, rapid, and comprehensive pathogen identification, leading to targeted treatment and improved patient outcomes.
