GA-map® Dysbiosis Test - assay specifications
Sample type
Stool
Read-out platform
MAGPIX®, Luminex®200™
Assay time
8 hours, pre-extracted samples
Output
Patient report including Dysbiosis Index, analyte abundance and microbiota functional profile
Assay format
48-plex, 1 well/sample
The clinically validated Dysbiosis Index (DI) is measured on a 5-point scale. DI value indicates the extent to which the bacteria profile of a sample deviates from a normal, healthy reference population.
Unique algorithm
With GA-map® Dysbiosis Test, the need for comprehensive result calculations in gut microbiota testing is obsolete. The GA-map® Analyzer software processes the raw analysis data through a unique algorithm, which compares each sample to a healthy reference population to generate clinically meaningful results.
50+ publications
GA-map® Dysbiosis Test has been widely applied in clinical research, providing reliable microbiome data in the fields of gastroenterology and metabolic disorders.
Clinical validation of the GA-map® Dysbiosis Test and the specifics of the technology platform enable incorporating microbiome as a standardized parameter into clinical studies.
