Breathe Easy – Rapid,
Reliable Testing for Respiratory Pathogens.
Fast and Accurate Results with PCR Testing
Respiratory Pathogen Testing by PCR
Flu, COVID-19, RSV, and bacterial respiratory infections look alike in the exam room. Our PCR-based panels identify the cause from one swab, so you can decide on antivirals, antibiotics, or supportive care without guessing.
Our Support
Diagnostic Support You Can
Count On .
TLS has the testing solutions healthcare providers need to make differential and definitive diagnoses of bacterial and viral respiratory infections amid the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond.
We utilize state-of-the-art PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) testing to amplify microscopic segments of pathogenic DNA to detect specific bacteria and viruses with incredible precision (~99% accuracy) and an astonishingly fast turnaround time (usually within 48-hours of sample receipt).

Common questions
Which panel should I order?
Start with the mini viral panel for typical seasonal illness. Use the comprehensive panel when the patient is high risk or the first test is negative and symptoms continue.
Do you support facility outbreak testing?
Yes. We coordinate collection and pickup for long-term care facilities.
Which insurance do you accept?
Coverage varies by plan. Call us at (248) 800-6626 and we will confirm coverage for your patients.

The Difference Is in the DNA
Is it COVID-19? Is it just a cold? The Flu? Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, distinguishing one reparatory illness from another has never been so critical.
That’s why Total Lab Solutions makes testing for common respiratory pathogens simple, fast, and effective.
While the difficulty of diagnosing respiratory illnesses can vary depending on the specific illness and the patient's individual circumstances, some challenges that may be encountered during diagnosis include:
1
Overlapping symptoms: Many respiratory illnesses present similar symptoms, making it difficult to differentiate between them based on a patient’s presentation alone.
2
Asymptomatic or mild cases: Some respiratory illnesses can be asymptomatic or cause only mild symptoms, making it more difficult to identify patients who are infected.
3
Comorbidities: Patients with underlying health conditions, such as heart or lung disease, may have more complex presentations that make it more difficult to diagnose a respiratory illness.
4
High-risk populations: Certain populations, such as elderly individuals or those with weakened immune systems, may be more at risk of severe respiratory illness and may require more careful diagnostic evaluation.
