My thoughts were along the lines of a guard force, away that genestealers are present, regularly having the men and civilians checked one way or another (chemical, physical, maybe mental). It would be a little touch, but those are the little things like that which take the fluff from the uber-edgy grimdark to the other, and in my personal opinion more preferable, grimdark but not hopeless on the small scale (Gaunt's Ghosts as an example).

Once the kiss has healed over.....there is a recognisable bit of biologic matter left in the wound, so a sufficiently sophisticated medicae auspex could pick it up, I guess, and certainly a medicae mortuus autopsy could find it.

Of course, detailed genetic checks of the kind that'd reliably turn up an infected (as opposed to a hybrid, who actively has a genetic divergence from human) are sadly going to be the prerogative of high-end officio medicae and adeptus mechanicus genetors......meaning hard to do and unworkable on a large scale (like, say "the planetary PDF"). Doing it on a small scale (like, say "PDF officers with access to the Lord-Governor's command centre") is more feasible.
