Benefit 01
The panel identifies which bacteria or yeast is present instead of reporting only that an infection may exist.
Benefit 02
Organism-level and resistance-gene data can help distinguish a persistent infection from a new episode.
Benefit 03
The panel flags resistance genes that can help inform a more targeted treatment discussion.
Benefit 04
Fast turnaround means less time waiting for answers.
Benefit 05
Choose mobile collection in Houston, Dallas, or San Antonio, or visit a Houston or Dallas-area lab.
Yes. An untreated urinary tract infection can spread upward from the bladder to the kidneys, causing a more serious infection called pyelonephritis. Testing earlier can identify the cause before it has more time to progress.
Recurrent UTIs may need a different clinical approach than a first episode. Identifying the organism and its resistance pattern each time can help show whether an infection is persistent or whether a new organism is involved.
This information is educational and general in nature; it is not a diagnosis. If you have UTI symptoms, consult a healthcare provider promptly—especially if symptoms are severe or include fever, back pain, or nausea.

Everything you need to move forward with confidence.
Your booking details and laboratory results are handled through secure systems.
Choose mobile collection if you prefer a trained collector to come to a home, office, or care facility within a supported service area. Choose walk-in if you want to visit our Houston or Dallas-area lab.
Yes. Test prices are shown on the page, and any collection or mileage fee is calculated during the booking flow before payment.
Results are delivered through a secure digital reporting process. Many routine results are available within 24–48 hours, but timing varies by test and specimen.
You will receive the details for your selected location and collection method. If the laboratory needs additional information for a specific test, the team will contact you.
A drugstore dipstick detects general markers such as leukocytes and nitrites. This urine PCR panel identifies specific bacteria or yeast and antibiotic-resistance genes, providing more detailed information than a simple positive or negative strip result.
No. A UTI is an infection of the urinary tract, not an STI, although sexual activity is one of several known risk factors. STD and STI testing uses separate, dedicated tests.
E. coli causes the large majority of UTIs, but other bacteria and, less commonly, yeast can also be responsible. Organism-level testing helps identify which target is present.
Bacteria can sometimes be present in urine without causing an infection. A healthcare provider should interpret a positive result alongside symptoms and other clinical information before treatment decisions are made.
