Please remember to include the proper submission form(s) with your samples. An accession fee of $8.50 is applied to each accession/case, not each specimen.

As a reminder, turnaround times are estimates in business days and apply to individual tests. Actual reporting of test results depends on the full battery of tests requested, day of the week/time of day samples arrive at the testing laboratory, and the quantity/quality of samples submitted. Research samples may require extended turnaround time. For more information, visit the Testing Information page.

    Fungal Panel I

    Test Code
    1404
    $56.75

    About this Test

    Detection of antibodies to Blastomyces, Coccidioides, and Histoplasma by agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID). 

    The AGID produces a qualitative positive or negative result for common fungal agents but does not show a rise or decline in antibody level (titer) when paired sera are tested.

    Specimen

    1 mL serum

    1405
    $96.25

    About this Test

    Detection of antibodies to Blastomyces, Coccidioides, Histoplasma, and Aspergillus by agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID); and antigen to Cryptococcus neoformans by latex agglutination. All techniques can be used for diagnostic purposes.

    Fungal Panel III

    Test Code
    1406
    $204.00

    About this Test

    Detection of antibodies to Blastomyces, Coccidioides, Histoplasma, and Aspergillus by agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID); antibodies to Coccidioides, Histoplasma and Aspergillus by complement fixation (CF); and antigen to Cryptococcus neoformans by latex agglutination. Cryptococcus is tested at 1:2 through the endpoint titer; the CF tests are tested at 1:8 through the endpoint titer.
