Read moreShort Name: AFP-MSample required: SerumResult Time: 1 Days Alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP) is a major glycoprotein produced by the yolk sac and the liver during fetal life. The protein is thought to be the fetal counterpart of serum albumin, and can bind and transport a multitude of ligands including bilirubin, fatty acids, nickel, and copper. AFP levels

HIGH levels are found in Hodgkins disease, lymphoma, brain tumors, renal cell cancer, and other types of cancer. Occasional elevations have also been found in chronic active hepatitis,

Each isoenzyme has a different chemical structure and activity depending on where in the body it is produced, as well as its genetic origin. It is mainly found in the liver, bone,

It has three distinct isoenzymes: A, B and C, which are found throughout the body but primarily found in high levels in muscle tissue. This test is performed to monitor
Read moreShort Name: ALD24Sample required: UrineResult Time: 5 Days Aldosterone is a steroid hormone and the most potent mineralocorticoid produced by the adrenals. It causes sodium retention and potassium loss. In the kidney, aldosterone causes the transfer of sodium from the lumen of the distal tubule into the tubular cells in exchange of potassium and hydrogen.
