Cell Damage & Tissue Injury
Cell Damage & Tissue Injury refers to the body's response to physical harm, stress, or dysfunction affecting its cells and tissues. The body is constantly renewing and repairing its cells, but when damage occurs - whether from trauma, infections, inflammation, or exposure to toxins - these processes can become disrupted. Cell damage may lead to tissue injury, triggering the body’s natural repair mechanisms to heal and restore function. However, when cell damage is extensive or persistent, it can lead to conditions such as muscle injury, liver disease, heart issues, or even chronic inflammation.

Liver HealthAlbuminThe Albumin Blood Test measures albumin, the main protein made by the liver that helps maintain fluid balance and carry hormones, vitamins, and medicines through the blood. Low albumin may be linked to liver or kidney disease, poor nutrition, or inflammation, while healthy levels support strong circulation and overall body function.
-
Cell Damage & Tissue InjuryLactate Dehydrogenase (LDH)The Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) Test measures an enzyme found in many tissues, including the heart, liver, muscles, and blood cells. High LDH levels may be linked to tissue damage, liver or muscle disease, or certain cancers, while normal levels usually indicate healthy cell function.
-
Kidney HealthElectrolytes, Urea & Creatinine (EUC)The Electrolytes, Urea & Creatinine (EUC) Test measures salts, minerals, and waste products in your blood to check kidney and metabolic health. Abnormal results may be linked to dehydration, kidney disease, or imbalances affecting your heart, muscles, and overall energy.
-
Liver HealthElectrolytes and Liver Function Test (ELFT)Check your kidney and liver health with our ELFT Blood Test. This test looks at key electrolytes that control fluid balance, plus enzymes and proteins that show how well your liver is working. It may help assess tiredness, digestion problems, medication effects, or overall organ health.
-
Liver HealthAlanine Aminotransferase (ALT)The Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) Test, also called the ALT or SGPT test, measures an enzyme made in the liver. High ALT levels may suggest liver irritation or damage from conditions such as fatty liver, hepatitis, alcohol use, or certain medicines.
-
Vitamins & MineralsVitamin CThe Vitamin C Blood Test measures levels of this essential vitamin, which supports immune defence, helps the body heal, and protects cells from damage. Low vitamin C can cause fatigue, slow wound healing, and in severe cases, scurvy. Adequate levels are important for energy, skin health, and overall wellbeing.
-
Vitamins & MineralsVitamin EThe Vitamin E Blood Test measures levels of this key antioxidant that helps protect cells from damage. Adequate vitamin E supports immunity, skin health, and circulation, while low levels may increase the risk of oxidative stress and related health issues.
-
Liver HealthBile Acids (Serum) TestThe Bile Acids (Serum) test measures substances made by the liver that help digest fats. High levels in the blood can mean the liver or bile flow isn’t working properly, which can affect digestion and overall health.
-
Liver HealthBilirubin - Indirect (Unconjugated) TestAssess red blood cell breakdown with our Bilirubin Indirect Unconjugated test. This important analysis measures unconjugated bilirubin levels to evaluate hemolysis, detect genetic conditions like Gilbert's syndrome, and assess the balance between red blood cell destruction and liver processing.
-
Muscle HealthMyoglobin TestDetect muscle damage with our Myoglobin test. This important analysis measures myoglobin levels to identify acute muscle injury, assess rhabdomyolysis risk, evaluate heart muscle damage, and monitor muscle breakdown in various medical conditions.
-
Muscle HealthCreatine Kinase (CK)The Creatine Kinase (CK) Blood Test measures an enzyme found in muscles, the brain, and the heart. High CK levels can signal muscle injury, intense exercise, or conditions affecting the heart and nervous system, while normal levels support healthy muscle and energy function.
