NEISSERIA GONORRHEA CULTURE (SWAB)

The Neisseria gonorrhoeae culture (swab) is a diagnostic service that uses a discreet at‑home swab of the genital, pharyngeal, or rectal site, which is then cultured in a laboratory to confirm gonorrococcal infection and enable antimicrobial susceptibility testing. This test is particularly useful when clinicians need antibiotic resistance data, when nucleic acid tests are inconclusive, or for symptomatic individuals, sexual contacts and suspected treatment failures. Touch Connect coordinates professional, confidential collection and transport to UAE‑accredited labs, with typical culture turnaround of 48–72 hours and secure reporting so your Dubai physician can rapidly guide appropriate treatment.
