The DNA Infection Susceptibility Test is a comprehensive genetic screening that assesses your inherited risk of developing complications from bacterial, viral, and parasitic infections. It analyzes your DNA for key genetic variants that influence how your immune system responds to common and severe pathogens — providing a clear view of your vulnerability to infections that can impact your health throughout life.

The test evaluates risk across three primary categories: bacterial infections, viral infections, and parasitic infections. It screens over 15 different infectious conditions, giving you personalized insight into how your body may react to specific threats.

In the bacterial category, the test includes conditions like tuberculosis, bacterial meningitis, pneumonia, helicobacter pylori infection, chronic Q fever, sepsis, recurrent vulvovaginal infections (RVVI), and corneal hysteresis. It identifies whether your genetic profile increases the likelihood of complications or severe symptoms, especially in environments where these infections are prevalent.

The viral infection panel covers serious conditions such as hepatitis, HIV, influenza, dengue, and hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD). Genes involved in immune response and viral replication are analyzed to determine how effectively your body might clear infections or whether you are genetically prone to severe outcomes.

In the parasitic category, the test evaluates risk for malaria, toxoplasmosis, and Chagas disease — conditions that are common in specific global regions. By understanding your risk, you can take extra precautions when traveling or living in high-risk zones.

Each trait includes a polygenic risk score (PRS), which determines if your susceptibility is low, moderate, or high. Alongside these scores, the report offers detailed preventive recommendations such as lifestyle adjustments, vaccination guidance, hygiene practices, and when to seek medical attention.

This test is especially useful for individuals with:

• A family history of severe infections

• Travel or relocation plans to high-risk regions

• Immune system sensitivities or chronic conditions

• A desire to proactively manage their long-term health

The DNA Infection Susceptibility Test provides the clarity and confidence to take preventive health actions early — using your unique genetic insights to stay ahead of potentially serious infections.
