VALPROIC ACID
This test measures the amount of valproic acid in your blood, which is a medication used to treat conditions like epilepsy, bipolar disorder, and migraine headaches. Monitoring its levels helps ensure the drug is within a therapeutic range.
VALPROIC ACID FREE
This test measures the "free" or unbound portion of valproic acid in your blood. Unlike the total valproic acid test, which includes both bound and unbound drug, the free level represents the active form that can exert its therapeutic effects.
Varicella Zoster antibodies, IgG
This test detects IgG antibodies to the Varicella Zoster virus (VZV), which causes chickenpox and shingles. A positive IgG result typically indicates past infection or vaccination, suggesting immunity to the virus.
Varicella Zoster antibodies, IgM
This test detects IgM antibodies to the Varicella Zoster virus (VZV), which causes chickenpox and shingles. The presence of IgM antibodies usually indicates a recent or active infection with the virus.
VARICELLA ZOSTER VIRUS (VZV) QUALITATIVE PCR
This test detects the genetic material (DNA) of the Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) in your blood. It's used to confirm an active infection with the virus responsible for chickenpox and shingles.
Vibrio cholera PCR
This PCR test specifically identifies the genetic material of *Vibrio cholerae*, the bacterium responsible for cholera. It's used to quickly and accurately diagnose cholera infection from a stool sample.
Vibrio parahaemolyticus PCR
This PCR test detects the DNA of *Vibrio parahaemolyticus*, a bacterium commonly associated with seafood-related food poisoning. It helps identify the cause of gastrointestinal illness, particularly after consuming raw or undercooked seafood.
Vibrio vulnificus PCR
This PCR test identifies the genetic material of *Vibrio vulnificus*, a bacterium that can cause severe infections, especially in individuals with underlying health conditions. It's used to diagnose infections from contaminated seafood or exposure to contaminated water.
Viscosity, Serum
This test measures the thickness or stickiness of your blood serum. It helps assess how easily blood flows through your vessels, which can impact overall circulation and organ function.
Vitamin A (Retinol)
Measures vitamin A (retinol) levels. Vitamin A is essential for vision, immune function, skin health, and cell growth.
Vitamin A (Retinol), Serum
This test measures the level of Vitamin A (retinol) in your blood serum. Vitamin A is essential for good vision, immune function, and healthy skin, playing a vital role in many bodily processes.
Vitamin B Complex Profile
This comprehensive profile measures the levels of several B vitamins in your blood, including B1, B2, B6, B9 (folate), and B12. B vitamins are crucial for energy production, brain function, and cell metabolism.
