Overview

A purposeful look at wound panel

A broad PCR panel for suspected wound infections — it screens a wound swab for common bacterial targets and eight antibiotic-resistance genes, helping replace trial-and-error with clearer organism and resistance information.

Who Is This Panel For?

  • People with a slow-healing or recurring wound when an infectious cause is suspected

  • Patients who need broad bacterial coverage from a single wound-swab specimen

  • Clinicians seeking bacterial target and antibiotic-resistance information to support a more informed care plan

Clear answers to common questions

Everything you need to move forward with confidence.

How do I choose between mobile and walk-in collection?

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.

Will I see the full price before I pay?

Yes. Test prices are shown on the page, and any collection or mileage fee is calculated during the booking flow before payment.

How and when will I receive results?

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.

What happens after I book?

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.
