Key test innovations GI Pathogen Plus Profile PCR based test for bacteria, toxins, h-pylori, virulence factors, parasites, viruses, sIgA, lactoferrin, elastase, anti-gliadin IgA and antibiotic resistance Key test innovations Adiponectin and Lectin Profile This test measures both analytes, as well as providing an Adiponectin:Leptin ratio. Important in assessing glucose metabolism, fatty acid breakdown and energy expenditure. Zonulin and DAO Gut Profile Important for assessing gut dysbiosis and tight gap junctions of GI tract. This profile also measures histamine levels, LPS and Diamine oxidase (DAO) which is a histamine-degrading enzyme. Adrenal Stress Profile Comprehensive panel assessing 4 point cortisol, DHEA, Melatonin, Anti-Gliadin IgA and Secretory IgA. key Test Innovations Organic Acid Profile 68 analytes for metabolic function. The most comprehensive profile available in the UK with 5 yeast/fungal markers and 16 amino acid metabolites. Oxidative Stress Profile Unique panel assessing glutathione status, DNA damage, Lipid Peroxidation and Superoxide Dismutase. Amino Acid Analysis 24-hour urine gives the most valuable information as many amino acids occur in detectable amounts only in urine. Neurotransmitter Profiles Tests measure the concentration of biogene amines (neurotranmitters) in platelets including serotonin, dopamine, epinephrine, histamine and metanephrine. Fatty Acid Profile Essential fatty acids are determined in the membranes of red blood cells, which gives a good indication of the essential fatty acid status over a long period. www.invivoclinical.co.uk Dunwoody Labs Dunwoody Labs is an innovative provider of testing solutions to assist in the diagnosis or the management of a variety of conditions commonly addressed by integrative medicine.
