Staphylococcus (staph) is a group of bacteria with over 30 species.  A type called Staphylococcus aureus causes most infections.  Staph infections can range from minor skin problems to life-threatening illness  if the bacteria invade deeper into your body, entering your bloodstream, joints, bones, lungs or heart. A growing number of otherwise healthy people are developing life-threatening staph infections.

Streptococcus (strep) are gram-positive aerobic organisms that cause many disorders, including pharyngitis, pneumonia, wound and skin infections, sepsis, and endocarditis. Symptoms vary with the organ infected. In addition to streptococcal pharyngitis (strep throat), certain Streptococcus species are responsible for many cases of pink eye, meningitis, bacterial pneumonia and endocarditis.

The DNA ConneXions Staph & Strep Test can be utilized without a doctor’s order and is performed with a simple, non-invasive dental Super Floss in the comfort of your own home.
