At-home laboratory test
GI MAP
A stool test combining microbial genetic targets with intestinal-health measurements. Collect your sample at home with the supplied materials and return it to the laboratory. Your written Health Map is included.
Your digestion has been unsettled for a while, or you want to look more closely at an earlier stool result. GI MAP looks for bacteria, parasites and yeast in stool and measures markers of digestion and intestinal inflammation, including the digestive enzyme elastase and the inflammation marker calprotectin. You receive the laboratory report and a written Health Map that explains the results alongside your questionnaire answers and any other results you share. Finding an organism does not establish that it is causing your symptoms.
Price includes delivery, prepaid sample return to the laboratory, laboratory analysis and your written Health Map report.

Section 01
Microbial targets
The first results identify the named bacterial targets. Molecular stool testing looks for genetic material. The toxin-labelled entries refer to the target genes listed in the panel. [1]
Section 02
Bacterial groups and individual organisms.
Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes appear as broad groups. Bifidobacterium, Akkermansia and the other named organisms have separate results. The ratio divides the measured Firmicutes quantity by Bacteroidetes.
Section 03
Fungi and the additional viral targets.
Candida species and the other fungal entries sit alongside the additional viral targets. Further pages list protozoa and worms separately, preserving the laboratory's grouping.
Section 04
The intestinal-health measurements.
Calprotectin is a protein from inflammatory cells and is used as a stool marker of intestinal inflammation. Pancreatic elastase adds a measurement related to pancreatic digestive-enzyme output. The same page lists the other intestinal markers separately. [2][3]
Section 05
Your written explanation of the results.
Your Health Map is prepared from the results, questionnaire answers and email exchanges. It explains the measurements in the context of the questions you shared with Deepcare.

Add a SIBO breath test
CHF 199, only with GI MAP. One breath test per GI MAP.
If you have persistent bloating, gas, abdominal pain, diarrhoea or constipation, discuss with your doctor whether breath testing fits your symptoms and history. SIBO means an excess of bacteria in the small intestine. This home test measures hydrogen and methane in your breath after a lactulose drink.
Add GI MAP to your basket, then choose the breath test there. ↗

Who is breath testing for?
The 2020 American College of Gastroenterology guideline suggests breath testing for people with irritable bowel syndrome, symptoms with a suspected intestinal movement disorder, or symptoms after surgery involving the digestive tract. These are conditional recommendations based on very low-quality evidence. It also suggests methane testing for people with constipation and symptoms, and advises against testing people without symptoms solely because they take proton-pump inhibitors, medicines that reduce stomach acid. [1]
The 2017 North American consensus supports testing for unexplained bloating and gas, and methane measurement with constipation. Guidance differs: a 2024 update endorsed by the European and American neurogastroenterology societies argues against using breath tests to establish SIBO in irritable bowel syndrome. Lactulose can reach the colon quickly and produce a false positive. [2] [3]
How collection works at home
Allow 3 hours for collection. Take a baseline breath sample, then drink the supplied 10 g lactulose mixed with 230 mL water within 5 minutes. Collect another sample every 20 minutes until 180 minutes, for 10 tubes in total. Do not drink water for the first hour after the drink. Keep the sealed tubes at room temperature and dispatch them within 2 days, following the enclosed instructions. [4]
Preparation and restrictions
Follow the instructions enclosed with your kit. Never stop a prescribed medicine without your doctor's agreement. Discuss conflicting medicines or special diets before ordering.
- Wait at least 4 weeks after antibiotics, diarrhoea, colonoscopy or a barium examination/enema; 2 to 4 weeks after antifungals, bismuth subsalicylate (Pepto-Bismol) or herbal antimicrobials.
- For 7 days beforehand, avoid laxatives, stool softeners, bulking agents and antacids containing aluminium or magnesium hydroxide.
- In the preceding 24 hours, stop probiotics. Before the fast, eat only baked or grilled chicken, fish or turkey with salt and pepper, white bread, plain white rice, eggs or clear chicken/beef broth without vegetables. Drinks: plain water, coffee or tea without sugar, sweeteners, milk or cream.
- For 12 hours before and throughout the test, fast: water only, with the first-hour exception above. Avoid non-essential medicines and supplements unless advised otherwise, chewing gum, sweets and mouthwash.
- For 1 hour before and during collection: no smoking or second-hand smoke, sleeping, vigorous exercise or toothpaste.
The instructions advise against this test after an allergic reaction to lactulose or with a medically required galactose- or lactulose-restricted diet, and they restrict it for some people with diabetes. If you have diabetes, ask your doctor before ordering. If you cannot follow the preparation, discuss another test with your doctor. [4]
What you receive
The collection kit includes the lactulose solution, 10 tubes, labels and a breath-sampling device. Laboratory analysis, delivery and prepaid return are included. You receive the breath-test results and one written Health Map that considers them together with your GI MAP results, questionnaire answers and other results you share. There is no separate Health Map for the breath test.
A positive result is a finding to take to a doctor, who decides whether any treatment is needed. Breath testing can give false positive or false negative results. Methane comes from methane-producing microorganisms that can live in both the small and large intestine; a methane-positive result does not locate them or prove bacterial overgrowth in the small intestine. [1] [5]
