PrimeSpot genetic test

Our PrimeSpot test has been developed to help accurately diagnose Lyme Disease and chronic fatigue syndrome.

Working from our world-class facilities in Europe, our molecular biologists use the latest medical techniques to analyse DNA extracted from your blood sample to identify variants or mutations, which can be used to detect the presence of Lyme disease and chronic fatigue syndrome.

Our PrimeSpot test is appropriate for adults aged 18 or over who want help in accurately diagnosing Lyme disease and chronic fatigue syndrome. If you are feeling unwell or experiencing any symptoms that are causing concern, please contact your personal healthcare provider as soon as possible.

The PrimeSpot genetic test can only be ordered through your personal healthcare provider. Please download this letter and take it along to your next appointment.

What is the threshold cycle mentioned in PaldiSpot?

The threshold cycle, or Ct value, shows that a detectable amount of the DNA has been generated during the test. The PaldiSpot test can detect the presence of 23 strains of Borrelia, Babesia or Bartonella DNA.

What information do I receive in the PaldiSpot test report?

The final report provides information on whether a specific strain is present in a patient’s cells or serum, and a quantification parameter (its Ct value, or Threshold Cycle).

How does the PaldiSpot test work?

A patient’s DNA is isolated from blood cells and serum. The patient’s DNA is used in Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) testing, where we screen the sample for the presence of Borrelia, Babesia or Bartonella DNA. Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) is an advanced laboratory technique that monitors the amplification of a specific DNA molecule.

What does the PaldiSpot test diagnose?

PaldiSpot analyses DNA extracted from your patient’s blood and serum to screen for 23 strains of Borrelia, Babesia and Bartonella genospecies.

How much does the PrediSpot genetic test cost?
