How does Biomesight compare to functional tests such as GI Map and GI Effects?

GI Map and GI Effects tests for a specific subset of common bacteria and provides bacterial counts for each, while Biomesight uses a technique allowing for the full profiling of all known organisms within the vast 16s databases. Typically our tests would detect around 400-600 organisms per person.

GI Map and GI Effects also do more than DNA profiling, so Biomesight is not a direct replacement for such tests, but many practitioners use both.
