They accept walk-ins and uses the latest equipment at an affordable price.
The clinic also has that friendly vibe with its soft green, clean interior and accommodating staff.
It’s never too early or too late to start taking care of our health.
COVID-19 Antibody Test
Aside from the routine and special clinical laboratory tests, MHAM Diagnostics is also a DOH-certified antibody-based COVID-19 testing laboratory with certificate no. 07-2020-013.
MHAM Diagnostics offers a very affordable Chemiluminescent Immunoassay (CLIA) antibody-based COVID-19 test, priced at only PHP 2,000.
This serologic test is designed to detect and quantify antibodies (immunoglobulins IgM and IgG) that are specific against the novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) that causes the disease called COVID-19.
RDT vs CLIA ANTIBODY-BASED COVID-19 TEST
Rapid diagnostic test (RDT) tells us the:
- Presence or absence of antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 (qualitative result)
- Not the amount/level of antibodies
CLIA tells us the:
- Presence or absence of IgM and IgG antibodies (qualitative result)
- Amount/level of IgM and IgG antibodies (quantitative result)
