Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH), Serum
The Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) test measures the level of this enzyme in your blood serum. LDH is present in almost all body tissues, and when cells are damaged, LDH is released into the bloodstream.
Lactobacillus spp. PCR
The Lactobacillus spp. PCR test identifies the presence of DNA from various Lactobacillus species in a urine sample. Lactobacillus are beneficial bacteria that play a crucial role in maintaining a healthy microbial balance in the body.
Lactoferrin Fecal, Quantitative
This test measures the amount of lactoferrin, a protein released by white blood cells, in your stool sample. Elevated levels often indicate inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract, helping to distinguish between inflammatory and non-inflammatory bowel conditions.
Lactose Tolerance Test
This test assesses your body's ability to digest lactose, the sugar found in milk and dairy products. It measures changes in blood glucose levels after consuming a lactose-rich drink to determine if you have lactose intolerance.
LAMBDA LIGHT CHAIN QUANTITATIVE, 24 hrs. URINE
This test measures the amount of lambda light chains in a 24-hour urine collection. Light chains are components of antibodies, and abnormal levels can indicate certain blood disorders or kidney issues.
LAMBDA LIGHT CHAIN QUANTITATIVE, SERUM
This blood test measures the amount of lambda light chains in your serum. Light chains are parts of antibodies, and abnormal levels can indicate certain conditions affecting the immune system or blood.
LAMBDA LIGHT CHAIN QUANTITATIVE, URINE RANDOM
This test measures the amount of lambda light chains in a single, random urine sample. Light chains are components of antibodies, and their presence in urine can indicate kidney issues or certain blood disorders.
LDH Isoenzymes Gel Electrophoresis Serum
This test measures the different forms (isoenzymes) of Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) in your blood. LDH is an enzyme found in many body tissues, and elevated levels can indicate tissue damage. Analyzing its isoenzymes helps pinpoint the specific organ or tissue affected.
LDL CHOLESTEROL
The LDL Cholesterol test measures the amount of "bad" cholesterol in your blood. High levels of LDL cholesterol can lead to plaque buildup in your arteries, increasing your risk of heart disease and stroke. This test is a key part of assessing your cardiovascular health.
Legionella pneumophila PCR
This PCR test directly detects the genetic material (DNA) of Legionella pneumophila bacteria from a swab sample. It's a highly sensitive and specific method to confirm the presence of the bacteria causing Legionnaires' disease.
Leptospira Detection by smear examination, Blood
This test involves examining a blood sample under a microscope to directly look for the presence of Leptospira bacteria. It's a quick method to identify the bacteria that cause leptospirosis, especially in the early stages of infection.
Leptospira Detection by smear examination, CSF
This test involves examining a sample of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) under a microscope to directly look for Leptospira bacteria. CSF is the fluid surrounding your brain and spinal cord, and this test is performed when there's suspicion of the infection affecting the central nervous system.
