About STD Testing in East Orange
STD testing is a category of diagnostic laboratory work rather than one uniform procedure.
A panel may screen for bacterial infections such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis, for viral infections such as HIV, herpes simplex virus, and hepatitis B or C, or for parasitic infections such as trichomoniasis. Each organism has a preferred detection method, which is why a single panel cannot test for everything at once.
Sample collection depends on the infections being assessed. Common specimen types include urine, blood, and swabs taken from the genital tract, throat, or rectum. Some assays detect the organism directly through nucleic acid amplification, while others detect the body's immune response through antibodies or antigens.
Results are typically available within one to three business days, though the timeframe can vary with the specific assays ordered and the laboratory performing them. Preparation is generally minimal, and any instructions provided by the lab should be followed to help ensure an accurate specimen.
