The test involves collecting a stool sample, which is then cultured to identify pathogens. Sensitivity testing follows to determine effective antibiotics.

It can diagnose bacterial, parasitic, or fungal infections causing gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea, abdominal pain, and fever.

Results are typically available within a few days, depending on the growth rate of pathogens and antibiotic sensitivity testing.

The test involves minimal risk, mainly related to sample collection. It’s essential to follow proper hygiene and sample collection procedures.

No, this test specifically detects bacteria, parasites, and fungi. Viral infections require different diagnostic tests.

Symptoms may include fatigue, weakness, anemia, neurological changes, and cognitive impairments.

Treatment involves vitamin B12 supplementation through oral tablets or injections, depending on the severity of the deficiency.

The test involves a simple blood draw with minimal risks, such as slight bruising at the puncture site.

A positive result indicates past infection with the Dengue virus or successful vaccination against Dengue.

No, additional tests, such as Dengue IgM or PCR, may be required to differentiate recent infections from past ones.

No, the Dengue IgG test is not suitable for diagnosing acute Dengue infection. IgG antibodies appear later in the course of infection.

Dengue IgG antibodies can remain detectable in the bloodstream for months to years after infection or vaccination.

A negative result suggests no detectable Dengue IgG antibodies. If symptoms persist or there is a recent exposure, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
