Clinical Chemistry Testing

NewBio Labs offers comprehensive Clinical Chemistry Testing services, providing accurate and reliable results for a wide range of assays and testing panels.

Clinical chemistry testing, also known as clinical biochemistry or chemical pathology, involves the analysis of chemical components in biological samples, such as blood, urine, and other bodily fluids. This type of testing provides valuable information about the functioning of various organs and systems within the body. Clinical chemistry tests are widely used for diagnostic, monitoring, and prognostic purposes in healthcare settings.

​

Here are some common types of tests performed in clinical chemistry:

  • Basic Metabolic Panel (BMP):

    • Measures essential electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride, and bicarbonate) and markers of kidney function (creatinine and blood urea nitrogen).

  • Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP):

    • Includes the BMP components along with liver function tests (such as albumin, total protein, bilirubin, and liver enzymes).

  • Liver Function Tests (LFTs):

    • Measure various enzymes and proteins related to liver health, including alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT).

  • Lipid Profile:

    • Measures cholesterol, triglycerides, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels to assess cardiovascular health.

  • Glucose Testing:

    • Measures blood glucose levels to diagnose and monitor diabetes and other glucose metabolism disorders.

  • Renal Function Tests:

    • Includes creatinine clearance, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and other tests to assess kidney function.

  • Electrolyte Testing:

    • Measures levels of various ions, such as sodium, potassium, chloride, and bicarbonate, which play crucial roles in maintaining body electrolyte balance.

  • Protein Testing:

    • Measures total protein, albumin, and globulin levels, which can provide insights into nutritional status and liver function.

  • Coagulation Tests:

    • Assess blood clotting factors and the clotting process, helping to diagnose bleeding disorders and monitor anticoagulant therapy.

  • Cardiac Biomarkers:

    • Includes tests like troponin and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) to diagnose and assess heart conditions, such as myocardial infarction (heart attack).

  • Hormone Testing:

    • Measures levels of hormones like thyroid hormones, sex hormones, and cortisol to assess endocrine function.

  • Therapeutic Drug Monitoring:

    • Measures the levels of certain medications in the blood to ensure proper dosing and avoid toxicity.
