Nov 4, 2009

Reno laboratory offers diagnostic testing for retrovirus

Last month scientists at Reno'sWhittemore Peterson Institute and the Cleveland Clinic published the results of a study that found the retrovirus XMRV present in more than 95 percent of chronic fatigue patients.

Though it has not been proven that XMRV causes the neuro-immune disease, scientists say there is a direct link.

Following the announcement of the discovery the institute received an outpouring of requests of testing for the retrovirus, according to a publicist.

Now, a state certified labratory in Reno is offering diagnostic testing for XMRV in cooperation with the institute.

Visit http://www.vipdx.com// for more information on the tests.

LATEST NEWS: XMRV TESTING

Dr. Vincent Lombardi, the primary investigator and first author on a paper that appeared in the 8 October 2009 issue of "Science", is the Director of Operations for the licensing and development of the XAND test assays used by VIP Dx for the detection of XMRV.

The landmark research publication, "Detection of an Infectious Retrovirus, XMRV, in Blood Cells of Patients with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome", appeared in the October issue of the prestigious journal Science (www.sciencemag.org).

We are also pleased to announce that VIP Dx has licensed this technology allowing us to offer the most accurate and sensitive testing available for XAND (XMRV associated neuro-immune disease).
