  • Calcium

    Calcium - Parameters: 1

    99 percent of the calcium in the body is found in the bones as hydroxyapatite, making calcium the most common mineral in the body. The leftover calcium is spread throughout the body's tissues and extracellular fluids, where it is essential to numerous functions that support life. Calcium is involved in blood coagulation, neuromuscular conduction, excitability of skeletal and cardiac muscle, enzyme activation, and maintenance of cell membrane integrity and permeability, among other extraskeletal functions. Vitamin D, calcitonin, and parathyroid hormone (PTH) regulate serum calcium levels and, by extension, body content. Serum PTH or vitamin D increases are typically linked to hypercalcemia. Other neoplastic disorders such as multiple myeloma may also be associated with elevated serum calcium levels. In conditions including pancreatitis, nephrosis, and hypoparathyroidism, hypocalcemia may be seen

  • Creatinine Kinase

    Creatinine Kinase - Parameters: 1

    Creatinine kinase (CK), an enzyme found primarily in muscles and the heart, is essential for energy production. Elevated CK levels in the bloodstream often indicate muscle damage or heart issues, making it a valuable diagnostic marker. Our laboratory offers precise CK testing, aiding in the timely diagnosis and monitoring of conditions such as heart attacks and muscle diseases. Trust our comprehensive lab services for accurate healthcare assessments and proactive management of your well-being.

  • Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate

    The Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) test measures the rate at which red blood cells settle in a tube of blood over time. It is a nonspecific indicator of inflammation in the body, with elevated rates suggesting the presence of inflammation or infection. Despite its nonspecificity, ESR is valuable in diagnosing and monitoring conditions like autoimmune diseases, infections, and certain cancers. Our laboratory provides accurate ESR testing to aid in timely diagnoses and effective treatment plans.

  • Glucose

    Glucose - Parameters: 1

    The primary carbohydrate found in peripheral blood is glucose. The body's primary source of cellular energy is the oxidation of glucose. Dietary glucose is transformed into either fatty acids or glycogen, which are then stored in the liver and adipose tissue, respectively. Many hormones, the most significant of which are generated by the pancreas, regulate blood glucose content within precise bounds. Hyperglycemia is most commonly caused by diabetes mellitus, which is a lack of insulin secretion or activity. Elevated blood glucose is also caused by a number of secondary causes. Pancreatitis, thyroid issues, kidney failure, and liver illness are a few of these. Hypoglycemia is not as commonly seen. Low blood glucose levels can result from a number of disorders, including insulinoma, hypopituitarism, and insulin-induced hypoglycemia. Diabetes mellitus and idiopathic hypoglycemia are two illnesses of carbohydrate metabolism that are treated and diagnosed using glucose levels. Measuring the amount of glucose in urine can help in diabetes management, evaluation of glucosuria, detection of renal tubular abnormalities, and diabetes screening.

  • Iron

    Iron - Parameters: 1

    Transferrin is a protein that moves iron from the intestine to cells that need it. The iron test measures how much iron transferrin carries. The blood's iron content fluctuates throughout the day and from day to day. Therefore, if an iron blood (serum) test is taken in isolation, it is not a helpful indicator of iron status. For this reason, serum iron is frequently asked for in addition to other iron status tests. Transferrin, ferritin, TIBC (total iron binding capacity), and UIBC (unbound iron binding capacity) are a few examples of these tests. If a physician detects iron poisoning or diseases related to high iron storage, they will order iron tests. Hereditary hemochromatosis is a genetic disorder that can cause excessive iron accumulation, although it can also happen after receiving several blood transfusions. Measurements are made of both transferrin and iron concentrations if iron excess is suspected. The extent of the iron overload can then be calculated using transferrin saturation. Transferrin saturation indicates how much iron is being carried by the blood and how much more it can hold.

  • Lactate Dehydrogenase

    Lactate Dehydrogenase - Parameters: 1

    Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is an enzyme crucial for energy production in cells, converting lactate to pyruvate during anaerobic metabolism. Elevated LDH levels can indicate tissue damage or disease, making it a valuable marker in diagnostics. Our laboratory provides accurate LDH testing, aiding in the diagnosis and monitoring of various conditions. Learn more about LDH and its clinical significance through our comprehensive lab services, ensuring precise healthcare assessments.

  • Phosphorus

    Phosphorus - Parameters: 1

    Phosphorus, an essential mineral, plays a pivotal role in various bodily functions. It contributes to bone health, energy metabolism, and cellular structure. Phosphorus also participates in the formation of DNA and RNA, vital for genetic processes. Our lab offers precise tests to monitor phosphorus levels, ensuring optimal bodily function. Explore the significance of phosphorus and its impact on overall health through our comprehensive laboratory services.

  • Uric Acid

    Uric Acid - Parameters: 1

    The end result of purine metabolism in the human body is uric acid. Measurements of uric acid are utilised in the diagnosis and treatment of several metabolic and renal illnesses, such as gout, leukaemia, psoriasis, hunger or other wasting syndromes, renal failure, and patients on cytotoxic medicines.
