Candida tropicalis PCR
This test uses a PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) method to detect the DNA of *Candida tropicalis*, a specific type of yeast. It helps identify the presence of this fungus, which can cause various infections in the body, particularly in urine samples.
Candidosis, Real time PCR
This Real-time PCR test is designed to rapidly detect the presence of *Candida* species, the yeast responsible for candidosis (thrush or yeast infection). It identifies the fungal DNA, offering a quick and precise diagnosis of the infection from a urine sample.
Carbamazepine, Serum
This test measures the level of carbamazepine in your blood. Carbamazepine is a medication primarily used to treat epilepsy and certain nerve pains. Monitoring its levels helps ensure the drug is effective without causing harmful side effects.
Carbohydrate Deficient Transferrin
The Carbohydrate Deficient Transferrin (CDT) test measures specific forms of transferrin in your blood. Transferrin is a protein that transports iron, and changes in its carbohydrate structure can indicate chronic heavy alcohol consumption.
Carboxy Hemoglobin
This test measures the amount of carboxyhemoglobin in your blood. Carboxyhemoglobin forms when carbon monoxide (CO) binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells, preventing oxygen from being carried effectively throughout the body. High levels indicate carbon monoxide poisoning.
Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA)
The Carcinoembryonic Antigen (CEA) test measures a protein that can be found in the blood. While CEA is naturally present in fetal tissue, elevated levels in adults can sometimes indicate the presence of certain cancers or other non-cancerous conditions. It's primarily used to monitor cancer treatment and detect recurrence.
Cardiolipin Antibodies - IgA, Serum
The Cardiolipin Antibodies (IgA) test detects a specific type of antibody that targets cardiolipin, a fat molecule found in cell membranes. These antibodies are associated with autoimmune conditions, particularly Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS), which can increase the risk of blood clots.
Cardiolipin Antibodies - IgG, Serum
The Cardiolipin Antibodies (IgG) test identifies IgG antibodies that target cardiolipin, a lipid found in cell membranes. The presence of these antibodies is a key indicator for Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS), an autoimmune disorder linked to an increased risk of blood clots and pregnancy complications.
Cardiolipin Antibodies - IgM, Serum
The Cardiolipin Antibodies (IgM) test checks for IgM antibodies that target cardiolipin, a lipid found in cell membranes. While these antibodies can be transiently present due to infections, persistent elevated levels may suggest an autoimmune condition like Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS).
CATECHOLAMINES, Plasma
The Plasma Catecholamines test measures the levels of stress hormones like epinephrine (adrenaline), norepinephrine (noradrenaline), and dopamine in your blood plasma. These hormones are produced by the adrenal glands and nerve cells, playing a vital role in your body's "fight or flight" response.
CATECHOLAMINES, Random Urine
This test measures levels of catecholamines (epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine) in a random urine sample. These hormones are produced by the adrenal glands and nerve tissues, playing a vital role in the body's stress response.
CBC REFLEX TO LAP
This test starts with a Complete Blood Count (CBC) to evaluate different components of your blood, like red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. If the white blood cell count is abnormal, it automatically "reflexes" to a Leukocyte Alkaline Phosphatase (LAP) score.
