Has anyone tried this yet? Aperiomics

[Mayzoo]

Has anyone tried the lab test named Aperiomics yet?  We are going to have the blood and nasal/throat swab done on August 14th.

• Standardized laboratory testing fails, up to 75% of the time, to identify pathogens that cause infection..

• Aperiomics identifies all known pathogens in a single test through next-generation sequencing of DNA/RNA from blood, swab, urine, fecal, tissue or other samples.

 

• Deep next-generation sequencing (NGS) creates a complete genetic fingerprint of all microorganisms, allowing us to test for EVERYTHING at once instead of only a few things at a time.

Not yet? I'm wondering if this is one of the first labs to popup that is related to this article:

https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn27659-cheap-blood-test-reveals-every-virus-youve-ever-been-exposed-to/

I couldn't find a cost. If it is one blood test for every thing, then the services are masked pretty well. I could only find a $200 out of pocket reference to insurance an deductible. Most labs have itemized cost lists for each test.

Aperomics  is 750.00 + 75.00 shipping per test.  Some insurances are covering it, some are not.  Ours is not.

 

The one you linked looks like it does only viruses.  Once I get results from the aperomics, I will post something on here about it thoroughness.
