Tests for 19 markers across four diseases

Title

Common tick-borne diseases such as Lyme disease, Tick-Borne Relapsing Fever (TBRF), Babesiosis, and Bartonellosis look alike and present with similar symptoms, which is why testing for all of them must be considered. AcuDart tests have a sensitivity greater than 90%, making them more accurate than any other DTC test or tests from commercial laboratories such as LabCorp or Quest. The AcuDart Tick-Borne Disease Test Panel is the most comprehensive and accurate test panel available for all the major tick-borne diseases because it targets 19 species across four diseases. Most tests looking for only one or two species.

Collecting Your Blood

All we need are a few drops.

That's right! A few drops of blood is all we need to test for nine species of Lyme causing Borrelia. Our sample collection card is an alternative collection method, similar to an SST tube. Red blood cells are separated without a centrifuge, enabling the laboratory to perform tests on dry blood.

Is this methodology accurate? Yes! The test results have been cross-validated against standard finger prick and venous draws.

Collecting Your Blood

All we need are a few drops.

A few drops of blood is all we need to test for eight species of Lyme causing borrelia. Red blood cells are separated without a centrifuge, enabling the laboratory to perform tests on dry blood. The test results have been cross-validated against standard finger prick and venous draws.

AcuDart tests detect antibodies to multiple species of Lyme Borrelia.

B. burgdorferi B31

The B31 strain is the most well-known and extensively researched strain of B. burgdorferi.

B. afzelii

B. californiensis

Borrelia californiensis is a species of bacteria that was discovered in 2007.

B. spielmanii

B. mayonii

Borrelia mayonii was first identified in a Minnesota resident in 2013. It can cause nausea, vomiting, and large, widespread rashes.

AcuDart tests detect antibodies to multiple species of Babesia.

B. microti

B. microti is the main cause of babesiosis, a malaria-like disease which also causes fever and hemolysis.

B. duncani

Human babesiosis caused by B. duncani has been associated with high parasite burden, severe pathology and death in multiple cases.

AcuDart tests detect antibodies to multiple species of Bartonella.

B. henselae

B. henselae is a bacterium that causes cat scratch disease (CSD), also known as cat scratch fever.

B. quintana

B. quintana infection is most commonly associated with body louse infestations in areas of high population density and poor sanitation.

B. elizabethae
