Now explore the most common causes of respiratory infections or hair health with Puhti’s new test packages!

We have added new laboratory packages to our selection:

With virus tests performed from the nasopharynx, you can identify the most common causes of respiratory infections, which include influenza A and B, Corona, and RS virus.

You can choose between an antigen virus test and a nucleic acid virus test. The nucleic acid test detects the virus’s genetic material and is highly sensitive, making it suitable for both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals. However, its drawback is a longer result time, usually 1–3 days. The antigen test, on the other hand, detects the virus’s surface proteins and works best for symptomatic individuals. Its advantage is speed, with results available in as little as 6 hours.

‘With the new Hair Health Research Package, you can explore various indicators related to hair health and receive concrete tips for improving the condition of your hair and assistance in identifying the cause of hair loss, for example. The package includes a very comprehensive selection of tests: complete blood count, sensitive CRP (body inflammation), cholesterol, glucose (fasting blood sugar), detailed examination of vitamin D, vitamin B12 (S -B12-TC2), folate, iron and ferritin, thyroid tests (TSH and T4-V), zinc, copper, as well as kidney and liver values.

You can access the tests as usual without a doctor’s visit or referral. Order the test from Puhti’s website and visit the nearest Mehiläinen laboratory for sampling. The order is valid for one year from the date of purchase.
