Know the Power of the Mitochondria with a simple swab of the cheek
Mitochondrial disorders may occur at any age.
Appropriate evaluation may lead to effective treatment *
Mitochondrial dysfunction causes many acute and chronic illnesses including Autism, Developmental delays, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Heart Failure, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Depression, etc.
MITOSWAB™ is a non-invasive test that analyzes the power of the mitochondria. With a simple buccal mucosal swab, MITOSWAB™ will analyze the components of the Electron Transport Chain - Complex I, and Complex IV. Citrate Synthase will measure the quantity of Mitochondria in the sample.
MITOSWAB™ has an 84% correlation with the muscle biopsy, which is the current gold standard for the evaluation of mitochondrial dysfunction. The ease of using a buccal swab makes MITOSWAB™ the first choice for the exploratory investigation of mitochondrial dysfunction.
MITOSWAB™ Plus is a non-invasive test. MITOSWAB™ Plus will analyze the components of the Electron Transport Chain - Complex I II, III and IV.
Structure of the Mitochondrial Electron Transport Chain (ETC)
Abnormalities or injury to the ETC can cause mitochondrial dysfunction. MITOSWAB may help analyze the ETC complex I and IV dysfunction which may help the Health Care Practitioner to diagnose and treat Mitochondrial dysfunction.
* Note: Please consult your Health Care Practitioner for guidance on evaluation and treatment. There is no FDA approved treatment for mitochondrial disease.
