Fig. 3 — Current testing compared with multi-analyte array. Clinical testing (right) is limited to a narrow group of pathogens (unless multiple tests are ordered). The Luminex GPP multi-analyte array we propose to use (left) employs a single stool or swab (rectal/oral) specimen to perform a comprehensive test panel.

Note - Edwardsiella is only routinely tested for in select laboratories in the province
