Clinical Utility

The Myco-Metabolic Panel combines the MycoTOX Profile™ and the Organic Acids Test (OAT) to provide insights into mycotoxin exposure and metabolic function. It measures 11 common mycotoxins and 76 organic acids related to gut health, energy production, neurotransmitter balance, nutritional status, and detoxification. The results help clinicians identify potential mold-related health impacts and guide personalized treatment strategies.
