STD Panel LabCorp
Chlamydia/Gonorrhea, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, Herpes Type 1 and 2, Hepatitis, Hepatic Function, and Syphilis
Our STD Panel includes a total of 7 tests, listed below:
Chlamydia/Gonorrhea test (Urinalysis) - This urine test is used in the detection of Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhea by nucleic acid amplification technology. When having this test completed, the patient should call ahead to make sure the patient service center (PSC) has APTIMA Combo 2 urine collection device.
Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) Type 1 and 2 Specific Antibodies, IgG - Used for detection of IgG antibodies specific to HSV types 1 and/or 2 infection. This test will confirm or rule out infection of the HSV Type 1 and 2 virus.
Hepatic Function Panel - Includes Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT/SGPT); Albumin, serum; Alkalin phosphatase, serum; Aspartate aminotransferase (AST/SGOT); Bilirubin, direct; Bilirubin, total; and Protein, total, serum. These tests are included in the Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP-14) and will provide even more information regarding kidney and liver function.
Hepatitis Panel, Full - This test is an acute hepatitis panel, which includes testing for the Hepatitis A antibody, IgM; hepatitis B core antibody, IgM; hepatitis B surface antigen; and hepatitis C virus antibody with reflex to Quantitative Real-time PCR.
Syphilis (RPR/Rapid Plasma Reagan with Reflex to Quantitative RPR) - This gold standard blood test looks for antibodies to the syphilis virus. If the RPR is positive, there is another test called Treponemal pallidum test. This will automatically run to confirm the result. Syphilis testing is important because a person can have syphilis without knowing it can pass it along to a partner easily.
