  • Cholesterol levels to identify heart disease risk
  • Signs of inflammation such as recurrent infections, lung, digestive tract, skin issues, muscles and joint pain.
  • Thyroid function which can cause tiredness, weight issues, skin and hair problems, memory issues, anxiety and depression.

Type of sample

Blood sample

What is included in this test

Full blood count (FBC)

Measures the number and type of cells in your blood, such as red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets and it provides important insights into overall health by evaluating blood components essential for oxygen transport, immunity, and clotting. It can help to detect anaemia, infections, bleeding disorders, and other abnormalities.

Biomarkers:
Complete Blood Count

Liver function

Liver function blood tests measure enzymes and proteins to screen for liver disease and damage. Abnormal results may indicate hepatitis, cirrhosis, cancer, alcohol abuse, medications toxicity, and infections. The panel provides key insights into liver health and function, helping diagnose and monitor conditions affecting this vital organ.

Biomarkers:
Bilirubin Alk Phos AST ALT Gamma GT Total Protein Albumin Globulin

Anaemia markers

Anaemia Markers represent essential indicators to diagnose and monitor anaemia. These markers can provide insights into iron storage and utilisation within the body, helping to determine potential deficiencies or imbalances.

Biomarkers:
Iron Total Iron Binding Ferritin

Inflammation markers

Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) provides insights into ongoing inflammatory processes.

Biomarkers:
ESR

Kidney Function

These biomarkers help to diagnose and monitor certain medical conditions, such as kidney disease, dehydration, and electrolyte imbalances.

Biomarkers:
Sodium Potassium Chloride Bicarbonate Urea Creatinine eGFR

Cardiac/Muscle Enzymes

Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) and Creatine Kinase (CK) are vital indicators used to assess heart and muscle health. Elevated levels can signal damage or stress to these tissues, helping diagnose conditions like heart attacks or muscle disorders.

Biomarkers:
LDH CK

Bone Markers

These are essential biomarkers for assessing bone health and metabolism. Their levels provide insights into bone density, mineral balance, and potential conditions like gout or osteoporosis.

Biomarkers:
Calcium Phosphate Uric Acid

Lipid Profile

These biomarkers measure levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, and other fats in your blood. They can help identify the risk of heart-related medical conditions.

Biomarkers:
Triglycerides Cholesterol HDL Cholesterol LDL Cholesterol Non-HDL Cholesterol

Thyroid Function

Free Thyroxine (FT4) and Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) are important health markers for evaluating thyroid function. Their measurements offer insights into the thyroid gland's function and help diagnose conditions like hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism.

Biomarkers:
FT4 TSH

Diabetes Biomarkers

HbA1c (Hemoglobin A1c) and Glucose are fundamental indicators for monitoring blood sugar regulation. These markers provide insights into an individual's long-term and short-term glucose levels aiding in the diagnosis and management of diabetes.

Biomarkers:
HbA1c Glucose
