Amplification and detection
PCR and isothermal panels for respiratory pathogens, COVID-19, urinary tract infection, HPV, and the rest of the infectious-disease menu.
CLIA laboratory · Sunnyvale, California
Patient Test Solutions, Inc accessions the specimen, runs the assay, and releases the result. The menu is molecular panels and focused sequencing — not a general catalog.
Molecular diagnostics and next-generation sequencing are performed here. Tests on the menu are already validated. Method work stays beside routine reporting, so a new assay is not handed to another company to finish.

What we run
Infectious disease, oncology, sexual health, and prenatal specimens are worked up here. If a request is outside the menu, we say so.
PCR and isothermal panels for respiratory pathogens, COVID-19, urinary tract infection, HPV, and the rest of the infectious-disease menu.
Amplicon cancer panels, cell-free DNA, and whole-exome sequencing — library, sequence, and interpretation stay in this laboratory.
A test is on the menu only after this laboratory has validated it. Development sits next to clinical reporting, not in a separate company.
Products and services
Laboratory-developed and kit-based methods, performed and reported here.
Respiratory, COVID-19, UTI, GI, wound, fungal, and resistance panels
Screening, genotyping, STI multiplex, and women’s health tests
Hotspot, breast, colorectal, lung, cfDNA, and mutation screens
Whole-exome sequencing of protein-coding exons, hereditary panels, and carrier screening
TORCH, NIPT, PGT-A, microdeletions, RhD, and related cfDNA tests
Where to start
Clinical testing, method development, and the files behind a report all live at this address.
Whole-exome sequencing reads the protein-coding exons — about 1% of DNA, and about 85% of mutations with large effects on disease-related traits. The library and the report are produced here.
MenuRespiratory, COVID-19, urinary tract, HPV, and the wider laboratory-developed menu.
LaboratoryAn independent CLIA laboratory. We report tests we have already validated.
How the work stays here
Many reference laboratories forward a panel when it does not fit their bench. Patient Test Solutions, Inc runs multiplex molecular tests and targeted sequencing on the same accession and signs the report.
