What Is STD Testing and Which Infections Do We Screen?
Urgent Care of NJ offers customized tests for common sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) all over New Jersey. Using nucleic acid amplification tests (NAAT) on urine or pubic swabs, STD testing can find Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, and Trichomonas vaginalis. Blood treponemal antibodies are used in rapid tests to look for syphilis, and 4th generation antigen/antibody assays are used to look for HIV. These tests find carriers who do not have any symptoms. This stops the disease from spreading and causing problems like pelvic inflammatory disease or infertility.

Chlamydia and Gonorrhea NAAT: Urine or swab detects bacterial DNA with 98% sensitivity.
Trichomonas Testing: Vaginal/cervical swabs identify protozoan infection causing discharge.
Syphilis Rapid Test: Fingerstick blood screens for treponemal antibodies (RPR confirmation).
HIV 4th Generation Test: Detects p24 antigen and antibodies in 20 minutes.
Hepatitis B Surface Antigen: A blood test screens for acute/chronic liver infection risk.
Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) IgG: Blood antibodies indicate past/current infection.
