The Biochemistry Profile combined with a Haematology Profile measures the functional capacity of the liver, heart, and bones, with a focus on testing for blood-related conditions.

The Biochemistry Profile combined with a Haematology Profile measures the functional capacity of the liver, heart, and bones, with a focus on testing for blood-related conditions.

  • Measures various components of blood, such as red and white blood cells, haemoglobin, hematocrit, and platelets, to assess overall health and detect disorders.

  • Measures the rate at which red blood cells settle in a tube of blood over time, indicating the presence of inflammation in the body. ESR is a non-specific test used to monitor conditions such as infections, autoimmune diseases, and certain cancers.

  • Tests the levels of sodium (NA), potassium (K), chloride (CL), urea, creatinine (CREA), bicarbonate (CO2), and estimates the glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) to evaluate kidney function and detect electrolyte imbalances.

  • Measures total bilirubin (TBIL), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total protein (TP), albumin (ALB), gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT), and globulins (GLOB) to assess liver function, detect liver damage, and diagnose liver diseases.

  • Measures lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase (CK) levels to evaluate heart function, detect heart damage, and diagnose conditions such as myocardial infarction (heart attack) and other cardiac diseases.

  • Tests levels of calcium (CA), albumin (ALB), corrected calcium (CCA), phosphate (PHOS), and uric acid (UA) to assess bone health, detect bone disorders such as osteoporosis or hypercalcemia, and monitor treatment effectiveness. Additionally includes an Iron test.

  • Measures the level of transferrin, a protein that transports iron in the blood, to assess iron metabolism and diagnose conditions related to iron deficiency or overload.

  • Calculates the percentage of transferrin that is bound with iron in the blood, providing an indirect measure of iron status and helping diagnose iron metabolism disorders such as iron deficiency or iron overload.

  • Measures the total amount of iron that can be bound by transferrin in the blood. TIBC levels help assess iron status, diagnose iron deficiency anaemia, and differentiate it from other forms of anaemia.
