What is Phosphorus (Inorganic) assay used for?
The human body contains approximately one kilogram of phosphorous. The calcium phosphate salts which comprise the inorganic substance of bone account for approximately 80% of the total phosphorous content. The remainder is distributed throughout other cells of the body primarily as organic phosphorous in phospholipids and phosphoproteins. Measurements of phosphorus (inorganic) are used in the diagnosis and treatment of various disorders including parathyroid gland and kidney diseases, and vitamin D imbalance.

What is Pancreatic Amylase assay used for?
Amylase is an enzyme present in pancreatic fluids within the small intestine. It is responsible for digesting many types of sugars, and is released into the blood when the pancreas is inflamed or diseased.
Amylase measurements are used primarily for the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatitis (severe inflammation of the pancreas) as well as pancreatic diseases. Amylase levels rise quickly at the start of a pancreatitis attack and fall after around 2 days. Elevated levels may also be associated with cancer of the pancreas, a perforated ulcer, gallbladder disease, mumps or ectopic pregnancy.

What is Magnesium assay used for?
Magnesium is one of the major intracellular cations in the body. Its action is closely related to that of calcium. Magnesium deficiency, hypomagnesaemia can result in various neuromuscular disorders, weakness, tremors, tetany and convulsions. It is associated with hypocalcaemia, intravenous therapy, diabetes mellitus, alcoholism, dialysis and pregnancy.
Increased serum magnesium levels are associated with dehydration, severe diabetic acidosis and Addison’s Disease. Conditions that interfere with glomerular filtration as in renal failure result in retention of magnesium and hence elevation of serum levels.

What is Lactate Dehydrogenase assay used for?
Lactate dehydrogenase (LD) catalyses the interconversion of lactic acid and pyruvic acid. The enzyme is composed of 4 peptide chains and exists in 5 isomeric forms. LD is widely distributed throughout the body, and the highest concentrations are found in the liver, heart and skeletal muscle. LD activity is significantly elevated during myocardial infarction. Maximum levels are reached 24 to 48 hours after the onset of chest pain and may remain elevated for 7 to 12 days post infarction. Increases in LD activity are also associated with other pathological conditions including liver disease, progressive muscular dystrophy, megaloblastic and pernicious anaemia.

What is Lactate assay used for?
Increased concentration of lactate in the blood is an indicator of anaerobic metabolism i.e. blood flow to the tissues decrease and oxygen delivery is insufficient. In cases of severe oxygen deprivation “Lactic Acidosis” may occur. L-Lactate may therefore be used as an indicator of severity of circulatory failure.

What is Iron assay used for?
Iron deficiency is one of the most prevalent human disorders. In adults iron deficiency is often symptomatic of chronic blood loss. Iron deficiency results in deficient haem synthesis with the subsequent symptoms of anaemia due to tissue hypoxia. Iron (non-heme) measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases such as iron deficiency anaemia, hemochromatosis (a disease associated with widespread deposit in the tissues of two iron-containing pigments, hemosiderin and hemofuscin, and characterized by pigmentation of the skin), and chronic renal disease.

What is GLDH assay used for?
GLDH measurements can be taken to evaluate the liver function. Elevated blood serum levels indicate liver damage. GLDH also plays an important role in the differential diagnosis of liver disease, especially in combination with aminotransferases.
Liver diseases such as toxic liver damage or hypoxic liver disease are characterised by high serum levels. In clinical trials, GLDH can also be used as a measurement for the safety of a drug.
The Randox GLDH is an optimised standard method according to the recommendations of the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Klinische Chemie. This procedure measures the non specific creep reaction.
