How Our UTI Testing Service Works

What Makes Our UTI Test Better?

Not All Services Are Equal

Other commercial UTI tests use dipsticks, culturing or PCR. These methods are limited to detecting a handful of bacteria and can miss important species altogether. They also struggle to give accurate levels of each bacteria present.

Fast Turnaround

As our UTI test is not based on culture, we can return your results typically within 48 hours of receiving your sample.

Accurate Estimations

Our internal calibration allows us to give accurate counts for how many cells of each microbe are present, helping to find which might be causing your symptoms.

Expansive Microbe Database

We match the microbial DNA in your sample to our database of over 4,000 different species of bacteria and yeasts, so we can build up a highly accurate list of all the microbes present.

Antibiotic Advice

Alongside discovering which microbes may be causing your symptoms, we also offer advice on which antibiotics may be effective against them.

Clear Reporting

We present your results in an easy-to-understand format on your personal, secure dashboard alongside your symptoms and any antibiotic advice. Easily share your results with your GP or health care provider.
