How it Works
30+ Years Experience in Microbiota Research
Since 1982, we've been Australia's only laboratory culturing all significant live gut bacteria from faecal samples—providing practitioners with accurate, quantitative data on commensal microbiota.
Culture-Based Quantitative Analysis
We culture and enumerate living bacteria from your sample, providing accurate colony-forming unit counts—not just presence or absence.
Advanced Identification Technology
MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry identifies bacteria by their unique peptide fingerprint, reliably distinguishing thousands of distinct species.
Expert Scientific Support
Our scientists consult with practitioners on interpreting results and developing targeted treatment plans based on each patient's microbiota profile.

At Bioscreen, we specialise in the Faecal Microbial Analysis (FMA) Test.
