The Laboratory Research Division (LRD) is the largest among the five (5) divisions of the Research Institute for Tropical Medicine. The LRD is composed of 10 departments: the Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Reference Laboratory (ARSRL), Immunology, Medical Entomology, Microbiology, Molecular Biology Laboratory, the National Tuberculosis Reference Laboratory, Parasitology, Pathology, Veterinary Research Laboratory, and Virology.

The LRD also houses all of the Philippine Department of Health’s National Reference Laboratories for infectious diseases (with the exception of the Reference Laboratory for Sexually Transmitted Infections) and World Health Organization (WHO) – recognized laboratories. These lead centers are tasked with performing laboratory research, monitoring of disease occurrence and spread (surveillance), responding rapidly to outbreaks and pandemics, performing confirmatory testing on referred specimens/microbial isolates, conducting training programs, providing guidance documents and technical assistance, testing of rapid diagnostic kits, and implementing national external quality assurance programs for microbiology laboratories. 

The RITM-LRD performs all of these activities to support the DOH’s disease prevention and control programs. 
Below is a list of the RITM Laboratory Services. For further queries, please contact the RITM Clinical Laboratory at (02) 807-2631/32/37 local 201.
