Lab Facilities

• Liver function tests (LFT) measure enzymes, proteins, and bilirubin levels to check if your liver is healthy.
• Kidney function tests (KFT) measure urea and creatinine levels to detect kidney-related problems.
• Why it matters: Liver and kidney are vital for removing toxins and waste. Damage often shows no symptoms until it’s serious.

2. Blood Sugar Levels (Diabetes Check)

• Measures fasting and post-meal glucose levels to diagnose or monitor diabetes.

3. Cholesterol and Lipid Profile

• Measures “good” HDL cholesterol, “bad” LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and total cholesterol.
• Detects risk of heart diseases, stroke, and blocked arteries.
• Why it matters: High cholesterol often has no symptoms but can silently harm your heart.

4. Electrolytes and Minerals

• Checks sodium, potassium, calcium, and chloride levels.
• Imbalance can cause dehydration, muscle weakness, irregular heartbeat, or cramps.
• Why it matters: Electrolytes maintain fluid balance and nerve function.

5. Hormones and Enzymes

• Tests hormones like thyroid (T3, T4, TSH) and enzymes that indicate body metabolism and organ health.
• Detects hormonal imbalances, thyroid disorders, and metabolic issues.
• Why it matters: Hormones control your growth, energy, mood, and many vital functions.

Microbiology is essential because microorganisms are everywhere — in the air we breathe, the water we drink, the soil we walk on, and even inside our bodies. While many of these microbes are harmless and even beneficial (like the good bacteria in our digestive system), some can cause diseases and infections. Understanding them helps:

• Prevent infections before they spread
• Diagnose diseases accurately

1. Bacteria

• What they are: Single-celled organisms that can live almost anywhere — in soil, water, air, and even inside our bodies.
• Harmful examples: Tuberculosis, urinary tract infections (UTI), pneumonia.
• Beneficial examples: Gut bacteria that help in digestion and production of vitamins.

2. Viruses

• What they are: Tiny infectious agents that need a host cell (human, animal, or plant) to survive and multiply.
• Common viral diseases: Flu (influenza), COVID-19, hepatitis, measles.
• Why they matter: Some viruses cause short-term illnesses, while others can lead to chronic diseases.

3. Fungi

• What they are: Organisms that can be found in the air, soil, water, and on human skin. They include yeasts, molds, and mushrooms.
• Harmful examples: Ringworm, candidiasis (yeast infections), athlete’s foot.

4. Parasites

• What they are: Organisms that live on or inside a host and take nutrients from it.
• Common diseases caused by parasites: Malaria (caused by Plasmodium), giardiasis, tapeworm infection.

1. Complete Blood Count (CBC)

• Measures red cells, white cells, platelets, hemoglobin, and hematocrit.
• Detects anemia, infections, inflammation, and general blood health.

2. Peripheral Blood Smear (PBS)

• Microscopic evaluation of blood cells.
• Identifies abnormal shapes or sizes of cells, infections like malaria, or blood cancers.

3. Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR)

• Measures inflammation in the body.
• High levels can indicate chronic infection, autoimmune disorders, or cancers.

4. Hemoglobin (Hb)

• Evaluates oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood.
• Low levels indicate anemia; high levels may suggest dehydration or lung-related issues.

5. Platelet Count

• Essential for clotting.
• Low platelets cause bleeding risk; high platelets may indicate clotting disorders.

6. Blood Grouping

• Determines your blood type (A, B, AB, O, Rh factor).
• Crucial for blood transfusions and pregnancy care.

7. Iron Studies (Ferritin, TIBC, Transferrin Saturation)

• Checks iron storage and transport in your body.
• Helps diagnose iron-deficiency anemia or overload conditions.

8. Vitamin B12 & Folate

• Deficiencies can cause megaloblastic anemia.
• Important for nerve health and red blood cell production.

9. Cancer-Related Hematology Tests (CEA, CA Markers, AFP)

• Found in the cancer screening packages.
• Used to detect or monitor blood cancers and related malignancies.
