By studying the body's chemical and biochemical processes, clinical biochemistry helps diagnose and manage illnesses by analyzing blood, urine, and other body fluids. These tests can be performed on all body fluids but are often performed on serum and plasma. In the Biochemistry section of The Hormone Lab, serum, plasma, urine, cerebrospinal fluid, etc., are being tested, and the results are delivered as soon as possible.
The Clinical Biochemistry Department analyses twenty thousand tests annually, and our goal is to generate helpful information for disease prevention, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, and monitoring.
Every year, the specimen collection department handles more than 20,000 sample cases. With our vast range of high-tech analytical systems and an extensive catalog of highly complex tests, we can cover any diagnostic needs for all medical specialties.
We have an automated central laboratory and provide support for primary care laboratories all around the country, which cover approximately 0.1% of the inhabitants. We also act as a reference laboratory for tests for other hospitals.
The DG health accredits the laboratory with all the requirements outlined in Decree 12 November 2012, which establishes the specific procedures for administrative authorization of clinical laboratories and the regulations governing the activities.
Round the Clock Routine Lab Investigations
Kidney Function Test (KFT)
Kidney function tests look for the level of waste products, such as creatinine and urea, in your blood. As a first step toward diagnosis of kidney disease, your doctor discusses your personal and family history with you. Among other things, your doctor might ask questions about whether you've been diagnosed with high blood pressure, if you've taken a medication that might affect kidney function, if you've noticed changes in your urinary habits and whether you have family members who have kidney disease.

Liver Function Test (LFT)
Liver function tests are blood tests used to help diagnose and monitor liver disease or damage. The tests measure the levels of certain enzymes and proteins in your blood.
Some of these tests measure how well the liver is performing its normal functions of producing protein and clearing bilirubin, a blood waste product. Other liver function tests measure enzymes that liver cells release in response to damage or disease.
Abnormal liver function test results don't always indicate liver disease. Your doctor will explain your results and what they mean.

Cardiac Function Test
our blood may offer many clues about your heart health. For example, high levels of "bad" cholesterol in your blood can be a sign that you're at increased risk of having a heart attack. And other substances in your blood can help your health care provider determine if you have heart failure or are at risk of developing fatty deposits (plaques) in your arteries (atherosclerosis).
It's important to remember that one blood test alone doesn't determine the risk of heart disease. The most important risk factors for heart disease are smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes.

Pancreatic Function Test
Pancreatitis is inflammation of the pancreas. The pancreas is a long, flat gland that sits tucked behind the stomach in the upper abdomen. The pancreas produces enzymes that help digestion and hormones that help regulate the way your body processes sugar (glucose). Pancreatitis can occur as acute pancreatitis — meaning it appears suddenly and lasts for days. Some people develop chronic pancreatitis, which is pancreatitis that occurs over many years. Mild cases of pancreatitis improve with treatment, but severe cases can cause life-threatening complications. Blood tests to look for elevated levels of pancreatic enzymes, along with white blood cells, kidney function and liver enzymes

Muscular Dystrophy Test
Muscular dystrophy is a group of diseases that cause progressive weakness and loss of muscle mass. In muscular dystrophy, abnormal genes (mutations) interfere with the production of proteins needed to form healthy muscle. There are many kinds of muscular dystrophy. Symptoms of the most common variety begin in childhood, mostly in boys. Other types don't surface until adulthood.
Enzyme tests. Damaged muscles release enzymes, such as creatine kinase (CK), into your blood. In a person who hasn't had a traumatic injury, high blood levels of CK suggest a muscle disease
CPK
Aldolase
Electrolytes And Minerals Test
The electrolyte panel is ordered to identify electrolyte, fluid, or pH imbalance. Electrolyte concentrations are evaluated to assist in investigating conditions that cause electrolyte imbalances such as dehydration, kidney disease, lung diseases, or heart conditions. Repeat testing of the electrolyte or its components may be used to monitor the patient’s response to treatment of any condition that may be causing the electrolyte, fluid or pH imbalance.
Electrolyte and acid-base imbalances can often be indicative of many acute and chronic illnesses. For this reason, the electrolyte panel is often used in the hospital and emergency settings to evaluate patients.
Minerals are essential for body function, and a lack of minerals can lead to several health care problems.

Coagulation Test
A coagulation factor test is used to find out if you have a problem with any of your clotting factors that may cause too little or too much blood clotting.
An abnormal result on a blood test that checks how long it takes your blood to clot. These tests include a prothrombin time test and INR (PT/INR) and/or a partial thromboplastin time test (PTT).
A family health history of problems with clotting factors. Some conditions that affect clotting factors, such hemophilia, are inherited. That means that your parents passed the gene for the disease to you. These conditions are not common.

Cannabis, marijuana, and Amphetamine are the most widely abused drugs in the world. Around 141 million people worldwide consume cannabis.

Vitamin Profile
The Vitamin profile test is used to diagnose vitamin D, vitamin B12, and micronutrient deficiency in the blood. It measures 25 hydroxy vitamin D levels. If the levels are abnormal, PTH levels in the blood are tested along with active vitamin B12, calcium, and magnesium levels.
Low vitamin D levels can help diagnose a case of secondary hyperparathyroidism. PTH test is most often used along with vitamin D levels to diagnose hypoparathyroidism & monitor kidney disease. It is also used to diagnose the cause of osteoporosis & kidney stones. Vitamin B12, calcium, and magnesium levels are also crucial for the efficient functioning of nerves, muscles, and cardiac health.25 (OH) Vitamin D

Anemia is a condition in which you lack enough healthy red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen to your body's tissues. Having anemia, also known as low hemoglobin, can make you feel tired and weak.
