MycoTOX – Great Plains Laboratory
Price range: $598.00 through $778.00
Comprehensive urine test by Great Plains Laboratory detecting 11 different mycotoxins produced by the most clinically significant mould species — including Aspergillus, Penicillium, Stachybotrys, and Fusarium. Essential for patients with unexplained fatigue, brain fog, respiratory issues, or chronic illness following water-damaged building exposure.
What is the MycoTOX Profile?
The MycoTOX Profile by Mosaic Diagnostics (formerly Great Plains Laboratory) is a urine test that screens for 11 different mycotoxins — toxic metabolites produced by indoor mould species. Mycotoxin exposure from water-damaged buildings is one of the most underdiagnosed causes of chronic illness, and this test provides the most comprehensive mycotoxin screening available.
Mycotoxins are small, lipophilic molecules that accumulate in body fat, disrupt immune function, impair mitochondrial energy production and cross the blood-brain barrier. Chronic low-level exposure often presents as a confusing cluster of symptoms that standard medical testing cannot explain.
Is this test for you?
The MycoTOX Profile is for people whose symptoms have a building-exposure shape to them:
- Chronic fatigue that worsens in certain buildings or environments
- Brain fog, memory issues or difficulty concentrating
- Recurrent sinus infections or chronic respiratory symptoms
- Unexplained headaches or migraines
- Muscle aches, joint pain or fibromyalgia-like symptoms
- Anxiety, depression or mood instability with no clear cause
- Known or suspected water damage or visible mould at home or work
- Symptoms that developed or worsened after moving to a new building
- Chronic illness that has not responded to standard treatment
What it measures
11 mycotoxins across the major indoor-mould species — covering the full spectrum of clinically relevant exposure.
Aflatoxin M1
Produced by Aspergillus flavus and A. parasiticus. Associated with liver toxicity, immune suppression and classified as a Group 1 carcinogen by the WHO.
Ochratoxin A (OTA)
Produced by Aspergillus and Penicillium species. One of the most commonly detected mycotoxins in water-damaged buildings. Nephrotoxic, immunosuppressive and neurotoxic.
Sterigmatocystin
Produced by Aspergillus versicolor — one of the most common indoor moulds. A precursor to aflatoxin with its own toxic effects on liver and immune function.
Trichothecenes
Roridin E, Verrucarin A, Satratoxin — produced by Stachybotrys chartarum (black mould). Among the most acutely toxic mycotoxins, strongly associated with severe fatigue and neurological symptoms.
Gliotoxin
Produced by Aspergillus fumigatus. A potent immunosuppressant that impairs neutrophil and macrophage function — often elevated in chronic sinusitis and recurrent infections.
Additional Mycotoxins
Citrinin, mycophenolic acid, chaetoglobosin A, enniatin B — covering the full spectrum of clinically relevant indoor-mould toxins.

Results released
Your report is emailed to you the moment the lab releases it. What happens next depends on your tier —
- Test only: the report is yours to use as you see fit — no consultation included. You can book a separate consultation with Rohan later if you change your mind.
- Test + 60-min Telehealth Consult: once your results land, Rohan will email you a booking link to schedule your Zoom.
- Existing patients of the clinic: results are typically discussed at your next regular appointment as usual.
Why this test, why now?
Mould illness is one of the most commonly missed drivers of chronic illness. Australia's climate, older building stock and tropical regions mean water damage is far more common than most people realise — and standard medical testing has no tools to detect mycotoxin burden.
If your symptom timeline points to a building, or you simply cannot get traction on chronic fatigue, brain fog, sinus or respiratory issues, this is the test that puts the question to rest in either direction.
Why Elemental Health and Nutrition?
Mould illness is one of the most complex and misunderstood areas of chronic health — and Rohan has extensive clinical experience identifying and treating mycotoxin-related illness. With Test + 60-min Telehealth Consult, your appointment delivers a clear, prioritised strategy covering binder therapy, detoxification support, immune restoration and guidance on environmental assessment.
