What the GI360 Examines
- Microbiome Composition: Identifies and quantifies bacteria, yeasts, viruses, and parasites. Offers a Dysbiosis index (using multiplex PCR) to measure microbial imbalance. It helps distinguish between gut health patterns typical of IBS and IBD.
- Digestive Function: Analyses markers such as elastase and stool fat content to assess digestion and nutrient absorption efficiency .
- Inflammation & Immunity: Measures inflammation markers (calprotectin, lactoferrin, lysozyme), immune indicators (secretory IgA), and Beta‑glucuronidase.
- Pathogens: Detects viruses, bacterial pathogens, and parasites using PCR, culture, microscopy, and MALDI‑TOF methods
- Stool Biochemistry: Reviews short‑chain fatty acids, pH, occult blood, carbohydrate/fat breakdown, and other digestive chemistry markers
Why It’s Used
- Diagnostics for GI Symptoms: Ideal for people suffering from bloating, abdominal pain, constipation, Diarrhea, IBS, IBD, or fatty stools .
- Identification of Underlying Causes: Helps pinpoint infections, microbiome imbalances, or inflammatory triggers guiding precision treatment
- Personalised Interventions: Results enable tailored treatment such as dietary adjustments, targeted probiotics, antimicrobials, and other therapies .
- Proactive Gut Health Profiling: Even without specific symptoms, the test offers valuable insight into microbiome health and early warning signs
- Connections Beyond the Gut: Increasing evidence links gut health to systemic conditions—including autoimmune disorders, neurological issues, skin problems, joint pain, and fatigue.
Summary
In summary, the GI360 Stool Test is a robust, multi-method stool profile combining molecular (PCR), culture, and biochemical assays. It provides a comprehensive look at gut ecology, digestive efficiency, inflammation, immune response, and pathogen exposure. This holistic approach empowers practitioners to diagnose gut-related issues accurately, design individualised treatment plans, and monitor gut health proactively—supporting wellness across body systems.
