mcfDNA Metagenomic Test | Lahalak Platform
Advanced technology analyzing microbial DNA in blood, allowing rapid and accurate detection of severe infection causes without the need for surgical biopsies or cultures.
Scientific name: Metagenomic Sequencing of Microbial Cell-Free DNA (mcfDNA)
A sophisticated molecular assay employs high-throughput gene sequencing (NGS) technology to identify and analyze microbial cell-free DNA (mcfDNA) fragments present in blood plasma. These fragments are released into the bloodstream by pathogens (bacteria, fungi, parasites, viruses) during active infection. NGS technology allows for the "reading" of...
