A set of medical tests aimed at evaluating hemoglobin levels and investigating the causes of anemia, including assessment of iron, essential vitamins, and overall blood function.
UIBC measures the unsaturated iron-binding capacity in the blood, meaning how much iron the transport protein transferrin can still bind. It helps assess the body’s iron stores.
The sickle cell test detects the presence of abnormally shaped red blood cells, used to diagnose sickle cell disease or identify carriers.
The transferrin saturation test measures the percentage of iron bound to the iron-carrying protein (transferrin) in the blood, indicating the body’s available iron.
The transferrin test measures the level of the iron-transporting protein in the blood, helping to evaluate the body’s iron status.
G6PD test measures the activity of the enzyme that protects red blood cells from damage and prevents their breakdown.
