Tick Testing Services at emDx

At emDx, we offer advanced testing solutions to meet the needs of our clients. Our team of highly skilled professionals specializes in a wide range of testing services. We utilize the latest equipment and technology to provide accurate and reliable results.


Our services include testing for the following tick-borne pathogens: 

  • Borrelia burgdorferi (Lyme Disease spirochete)
  • Babesia microti (Babesiosis protozoan)
  • Anaplasma phagocytophilum (Anaplasmosis bacteria)
  • Borrelia myamotoi (Tick-Borne Relapsing Fever - TBRF)
  • Powassan virus (POW) 
  • Rickettsia rickettsii (Rock Mountain Spotted Fever – RMSF)


The most common test we run is for Borrelia burgdorferi, the causative agent of Lyme Disease. However, we also offer a 6-in-1 testing service, where we test for: Lyme, Anaplasmosis, Babesiosis, TBRF (Tick Borne Relapsing Fever), POW (Powassan Virus) and RMSF (Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever). If multiple ticks are submitted with a single Tick Submission Form, they will be processed together. Should you want ticks to be tested individually, please contact us before shipping.

Testing Ticks since 2011

We have been conducting RT-qPCR tests for viruses since 2002 as part of Ontario's West Nile Virus mosquito surveillance and virus testing program. 


We complete proficiency panels every season that are administered by the Public Health Agency of Canada. Our corporate and business clients include many Health Units and First Nations across Ontario. 


Since 2011 we have been using RT-qPCR to test for a variety of pathogens in ticks.  


Our tick testing services are now available to individuals like you. We can test ticks found on you or your pets.
