Who is This Test For?
FLUIDS iQ’s Total Lipopolysaccharides (Total LPS) test is a reliable means of assessing the state of intestinal dysbiosis, and the effects that increases in LPS might have on intestinal permeability. What’s more, the level of total LPS in blood is a strong marker of systemic, chronic inflammation. This in turn opens the door to an assessment of multiple organ dysfunction.

Benefits of LPS Testing
Who Benefits from LPS Testing?
Individuals, and their health care practitioners, who seek to monitor chronic inflammatory conditions, as well as metabolic and infectious abnormalities. Assessing LPS levels provides a non-specific but valuable indication of the body’s immune response to bacterial endotoxins, and is a helpful guide in determining the clinical options that will lead to optimal outcomes.
