What does it detect?
The kidneys are two small secondary organs that produce urine. These are responsible for filtering toxins from the blood and achieving a balance of water, ions and pH.
5 BioMarkers:
Urea: gauges how well they are functioning.
Creatinine: determines malfunction or failure, level of creatinine. Blood serum creatinine.
Phosphate: Is essential for producing energy, muscles, nerve function and bone growth. Measures the amount of phosphate.
Albumin: measures the amount of protein in the transparent liquid portion of the blood.
Bicarbonate: healthy organs help keep your bicarbonate levels in balance. Measures the amount of bicarbonate in your blood.
Please take the sample in the morning before eating or drinking.

A: This mineral is essential to life. It plays an important role in energy metabolism, oxygen transport, immune function, and the formation of red cells. And must be detected by an Iron Blood Test.
Q: Does pregnancy have an impact on my levels?
A: During your pregnancy, the need increases because the body uses it to make extra fluid to transport oxygen for you and your baby during this time. Also, the volume in your body increases by 30-50%.
Q: From what foods can I get it?
A: Rich foods include red meat, beans, dried fruits, cereals, bread, pasta, and pork.
Q: Is this mineral important if I am an active person?
A: Active persons need this mineral to maintain and support energy, as your body muscles use it to help produce it.
A: We recommend that you check first with your GP.
Q: What side effects might I get if I take supplements?

Q: What exams are recommended if I have a deficiency?
A: Take this sample and a Complete Blood Count if you have any deficiencies.
Interpretations
What is the Scientific Data from Instrument and Reagent Supplier?
Technology Method:
Fully automatic biochemistry analyser
Limit of Detection:
Urea: 0.9 mmol/L
Creatinine: 22 umol/L
Phosphate: 1 mmol/L
Bicarbonate: 0.749 mmol/L
Albumin: 10 g/L
Accuracy and Precision:
Urea: The approximate error is < ± 10%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 5%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 5%.
Creatinine: The approximate error is < ± 15%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 3.62%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 4.12%.
Phosphate: The approximate error is < ± 10%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 5%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 10%.
Bicarbonate: The within-assay CV is ≤ 3.93%. The total precision is ≤ 7.86%.
Albumin: The approximate error is < ± 4%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 3%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 5%.
The accuracy relies on the approximate error percentage. This percentage is the percentage deviation from the actual result. The precision relies on the within-assay coefficient of variations and the between-assay coefficient. The within-assay coefficient of variations is the variance of the result value if the same test was analysed again. The between assay coefficient is the variance of the result value if the same sample was reprocessed from the beginning again.
