GI360 Profile

Sample Required: Stool | Test Type: Immunity | Sample: View Sample Report

Our comprehensive and clinically-applicable stool profile (called the GI360 Profile by Doctor’s Data) includes 6 component test bundles that together give you a 360-degree functional assessment of the GI system.

The summary of the 6 parts:

• Brand new PCR Microbiome Testing
• PCR GI Pathogen Testing
• Comprehensive Parasitology by Microscopy
• Microbiology – MALDI-TOF ID of cultured Bacteria and Yeast
• Susceptibilities of isolated Bacteria and Yeast
• Stool Chemistries Testing

In a little more detail, the GI360 Profile:

• Utilises multiplex PCR molecular technology coupled with growth-based culture and ID by MALDI-TOF, sensitive biochemical assays and microscopy to detect and assess the status of pathogens, viruses, parasites and bacteria that may be contributing to acute or chronic gastrointestinal symptoms and disease.
• It is a gut microbiota DNA analysis tool that identifies and characterises the abundance and diversity of more than 50 targeted analytes that peer-reviewed research has shown to contribute to dysbiosis and chronic disease.
• Can identify the presence of 15 pathogenic viruses, bacteria and parasites using multiplexed, real-time PCR. Viruses are the primary cause of acute diarrhoea, and least commonly tested. The identification of pathogenic bacteria, viruses and parasites improves treatment strategies and patient outcomes.

 Indications for analysis:

• Gastrointestinal Symptoms
• Autoimmune Disease
• IBD/IBS
• Inflammation
• Food Sensitivities
• Nutritional Deficiencies
• Joint Pain
• Acute or Chronic Diarrhoea
• Bloody Stool
• Mucosal Barrier Dysfunction
• Abdominal Pain
• Fever and Vomiting

Functional Medical Tests – Costs, Terms & Timeframes

All functional test kits incur only minimal administrative costs and include a pre-paid courier bag with full instructions for self-collection and submission. Kits are dispatched to one of our New Zealand distributors — FxMed or Nutriscript — who consolidate and forward samples via weekly shipments to accredited laboratories in the United States or Australia.

The standard turnaround time for results is 3–5 weeks from the date of sample submission. If you have not received your results within 5 weeks, please contact us so we can follow up on your behalf.

Please note: Occasional delays may occur due to customs clearance, international courier disruptions, or laboratory backlogs. These are outside our control but we will assist in tracking and resolving any extended delays.

Once results are available, we receive them directly from the distributor and forward them to you on the same day. Laboratory reports typically include detailed interpretations, reference ranges, and explanatory notes.

We strongly recommend booking a follow-up consultation — either online or in person — to contextualise your results within your broader health strategy. This ensures accurate interpretation and integration into your personalised care plan.

Consultation fees are additional to the cost of the test kit.
