GI 360 Complete Gut Microbiome Test
GI 360 Complete Gut Microbiome Test
The GI360 is an innovative, comprehensive, and clinically-applicable stool profile, utilising multiplex PCR molecular technology coupled with growth-based culture by MALDI-TOF and microscopy to detect and assess the status of pathogens, viruses, parasites, bacteria, and yeast. The test also evaluates digestion,
absorption, inflammation, immunity, and gut health markers like beta-glucuronidase, providing insights into both acute and chronic GI conditions.
Why consider the GI360 Complete?
Advanced Microbiome Assessment - Utilises three methods - qPCR, growth-based culture (ID via MALDI-TOF),
and microscopy, to offer a comprehensive analysis of your patient’s gut microbiome
Targeted Treatment Support - Susceptibility testing for dysbiotic microbes guides individualised clinicalintervention
Comprehensive Stool Chemistries - Offers a functional assessment of gut health by measuring validated biomarkers, evaluating digestive function, nutrient absorption, and immune and barrier integrity
IBD vs. IBS Differentiation - Includes three key inflammatory markers, Calprotectin, Lactoferrin, and Lysozyme, to support differentiation between IBD and IBS
Validated Results - Integrates multiple gold standard methodologies, as well as CE-marked Dysbiosis Index,
Microbiome Abundance and Diversity Summary, and functional markers, based on data and studies of healthy and IBS/IBD populations
Key Markers
Microbiome Composition – qPCR analysis of 45 targeted commensal bacteria
| Pathogen & Parasitology Screening – Bacteria, yeasts, GI pathogens, parasites
| GI Inflammation & Immunity Markers – Calprotectin, Lactoferrin, Lysozyme, and Secretory IgA
| Digestion & Absorption Markers – Elastase, fat stain, and carbohydrates
| Short-Chain Fatty Acids (SCFAs) – Acetate %, propionate%, valerate%, butyrate%, total butyrate and total SCFAs
| Intestinal Health Markers – pH, B-glucuronidase, occult blood
| Additional Markers – Yeast, RBC, WBC, muscle, and vegetable fibres, Charcot-Leyden crystals, and pollen
Who might benefit from this test?
The GI360 Complete test is ideal for assessing gut health in individuals with digestive complaints or seeking overall well-being. It is particularly useful for those experiencing: Gastrointestinal symptoms (diarrhea, bloating, abdominal pain), inflammation, joint pain, mucosal barrier dysfunction, autoimmune disease, food sensitivities, IBD/IBS, nutritional deficiencies, bloody stools and fever/vomiting.
