    Homocysteine (Quantitative)

    Heart and circulation · Cholesterol and heart1 markerBlood (vein)Result in about 1 working day

    Collection point

    Measures homocysteine in the blood. Raised levels have been associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke and dementia.

    Heart and circulation · Cholesterol and heart1 markerBlood (vein)Result in about 3 working days

    Measures lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) in the blood. It is used to assess cardiovascular risk, particularly atherosclerosis and stroke.

    Heart and circulation · Cholesterol and heart1 markerBlood (vein)Result in about 1 working day

    Measures troponin I, a protein released when heart muscle has been damaged, such as in a heart attack. The more damage there is, the higher the level.

  • MET-004

    G6PD

    Diabetes, weight and metabolism · Diabetes1 markerBlood (vein)Result in about 1 working day

    Collection point

    Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase (G6PD)

  • MET-005

    Glucose

    Diabetes, weight and metabolism · Diabetes1 markerBlood (vein)Result in about 1 working day

    Collection point

    Measures the level of glucose (sugar) in the blood. Uses include monitoring diabetes, checking low or high blood sugar and routine health check-ups.

    Glucose

  • MET-006

    Glucose Tolerance Test/OGTT

    Diabetes, weight and metabolism · Diabetes2 markersBlood (vein)Result in about 1 working day

    Collection point

    Checks how well the body processes sugar: you drink a sweet glucose liquid and blood sugar is measured again, usually two hours later. It is often done in pregnancy.

  • MET-007

    Insulin

    Diabetes, weight and metabolism · Diabetes1 markerBlood (vein)Result in about 1 working day

    Collection point

    Measures insulin, the hormone that regulates blood sugar. It shows how well the body produces and uses insulin, and is used in diabetes, low blood sugar and metabolic syndrome.

    Insulin

  • MET-008

    Insulin Resistance

    Diabetes, weight and metabolism · Diabetes3 markersBlood (vein)Result in about 1 working day

    Collection point

    Measures fasting insulin and glucose and calculates HOMA-IR, which shows how well the body responds to insulin. A fasting sample is required.

  • TIR-001

    Antithyroglobulin Antibodies

    Thyroid · Thyroid1 markerBlood (vein)Result in about 1 working day

    Collection point

    Measures antibodies against thyroglobulin, a protein made by the thyroid. These antibodies point to an autoimmune response against the thyroid, as in Hashimoto's thyroiditis or Graves' disease.

    Antithyroglobulin Antibodies

  • TIR-002

    Free T3 (triiodothyronine)

    Thyroid · Thyroid1 markerBlood (vein)Result in about 1 working day

    Collection point

    Measures free triiodothyronine (T3), a thyroid hormone that helps regulate metabolism and energy production. It helps assess an overactive or underactive thyroid and thyroid inflammation.

    Free T4 (thyroxine)

    Thyroid · Thyroid1 markerBlood (vein)Result in about 1 working day

    Collection point
