Microbiology & Molecular Diagnostics

The Microbiology & Molecular Diagnostics division at PATHCURE LABORATORY AND RESEARCH CENTRE PVT LTD offers comprehensive testing services for the detection and monitoring of infectious diseases. By combining traditional microbiological techniques with advanced molecular diagnostics, we ensure rapid, reliable, and accurate identification of pathogens that are essential for timely and targeted treatment.

Microbiology Services

Our microbiology lab is equipped to handle a wide range of specimens, including blood, urine, stool, sputum, swabs, and other body fluids. Services include:

• Bacteriology – Culture and sensitivity testing to identify bacterial infections and determine effective antibiotic therapy

• Mycology – Diagnosis of fungal infections through microscopy, culture, and antigen detection

• Parasitology – Detection of parasitic organisms through stool and blood examinations

• Virology – Screening for common and emerging viral infections

We follow strict protocols for sample collection, handling, and testing to ensure the highest standards of quality and biosafety.

Molecular Diagnostics

Our molecular lab uses cutting-edge technologies such as Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and Real-Time PCR (RT-PCR) for the detection of infectious agents and genetic abnormalities with unmatched sensitivity and specificity. Key tests include:

• Viral Load Testing for Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, HIV, and more

• Tuberculosis Detection (GeneXpert/RT-PCR)

• COVID-19 RT-PCR

• HPV DNA Testing

• TORCH Panel

• Respiratory Pathogen Panels

• Genetic and hereditary disease screening

Molecular diagnostics play a crucial role in early disease detection, infection control, and monitoring therapeutic response—making it an integral part of our diagnostic offerings.
