Array 12 - Pathogen-Associated Immune Reactivity Screen

Chronic illness often has hidden contributors that standard testing fails to reveal. Many individuals struggle with persistent symptoms, unexplained inflammation, or recurrent health issues, yet conventional diagnostics come back “normal.” In many cases, lingering immune responses to pathogens—whether past or present—may be silently fueling these challenges.

The Array 12 – Pathogen-Associated Immune Reactivity Screen by Cyrex Labs is an advanced, comprehensive tool designed to detect immune responses to a broad range of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi. Unlike typical tests that only confirm active infections, Array 12 evaluates immune reactivity, indicating whether the immune system is still responding to past exposures or persistent low-level infections.

This makes Array 12 a powerful resource for uncovering hidden infectious triggers that may be contributing to chronic illness, immune dysregulation, and systemic inflammation.

The Array 12 test identifies immune reactions (IgG) to approximately 30 pathogens—bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, and tick-borne agents—that may trigger autoimmune reactivity. It’s part of our robust Advanced Lab Testing offerings.

Why Array 12 is Different

Most traditional infection panels are designed to detect acute, active infections—but they often miss immune responses that linger after an infection has technically cleared. For some individuals, the immune system continues to recognize pathogen fragments or latent infections, keeping the body in a state of ongoing immune activation.

Array 12 identifies immune reactivity patterns to a diverse range of pathogens, including:

• Bacterial triggers linked to gut dysbiosis, skin conditions, and systemic inflammation

• Viral exposures that may remain dormant but still provoke immune responses

• Parasitic antigens that can disrupt digestion and immune balance

• Fungal components that may contribute to chronic inflammatory or allergic conditions

This deeper insight allows healthcare providers to connect the dots between unresolved symptoms and potential infectious contributors that would otherwise go undetected.

Who Should Consider the Array 12 Test?

This test is highly valuable for individuals who:

• Struggle with chronic, unexplained health issues despite multiple medical evaluations

• Experience digestive disturbances, bloating, or IBS-like symptoms with no clear cause

• Have chronic fatigue, brain fog, joint pain, or skin conditions that flare without explanation

• Live with autoimmune conditions that seem to be triggered or worsened by infections

• Have a history of recurrent infections or known pathogen exposures and want to assess lingering immune reactivity

• Completed treatment for a known infection but want to ensure the immune system is no longer in a reactive state

In complex cases where other diagnostic approaches fall short, Array 12 can help fill in the missing pieces of the health puzzle.

Why Immune Reactivity Matters

Pathogen-associated immune reactivity can keep the body in a prolonged state of inflammation, contributing to:

• Impaired gut integrity and microbiome imbalance

• Immune dysfunction that exacerbates autoimmune flares

• Hormonal imbalances and energy depletion

• Difficulty recovering from other chronic conditions

By identifying these hidden immune triggers, Array 12 empowers both patients and providers to take targeted steps toward resolving immune stress and reducing chronic symptoms.

Benefits of the Array 12 Test

• In-depth Insight: Reveals immune responses to bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi that may be overlooked by traditional tests.

• Precision Treatment: Helps clinicians create more tailored and effective treatment plans for chronic illness.

• Long-Term Relief: Reducing pathogen-triggered immune dysfunction can lead to better energy, reduced inflammation, and improved overall health.

By addressing these underlying immune challenges, patients can move closer to true healing and long-term wellness.
