as mentioned qPCR or rtqPCR should meet your needs. but you'll need pathogen specific primers. My understanding is you might have a hard time getting them. Modern DNA synthesis companies flag orders for sequences that match known pathogens as suspicious.

Hi! I'm new to this group. I am interested in doing the following types of tests at home, and would like to know if it's feasible? And what equipment I would need? At this point I haven't even bought a microscope yet.
Chlamydia and gonorrhea testing (nucleic acid or cell culture, from urine or swab)
Parasite testing from fecal and urine samples (giardia plus helminths / worms)
Any advice would be much appreciated, thanks!
