-
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.
-
Heavy Metals & ToxicologyAluminiumThe Aluminium Blood Test measures how much aluminium is in your blood. High levels can happen from workplace exposure, contaminated food or water, or certain medical treatments. Too much aluminium may affect bone, brain, and overall health.
-
Vitamins & MineralsRed Blood Cell Copper (RBC Copper)The Red Blood Cell Copper Test measures copper stored inside red blood cells, giving a clearer view of long-term copper status than a standard blood test. Copper is essential for energy, immunity, and red blood cell production. Low levels may cause fatigue, anaemia, or weak immunity, while high levels may indicate toxicity or over-supplementation. This test is only available at Healius and 4Cyte collection centres.
-
Vitamins & MineralsLithium Serum LevelMonitor lithium therapy safety with our Lithium Serum Level test. This essential analysis measures lithium concentrations to ensure therapeutic effectiveness while preventing toxicity in individuals using lithium for mood disorders and mental health conditions.
-
Vitamins & MineralsIodine (Random Urine)The Iodine (Random Urine) Test measures how much iodine is in your urine. Iodine is essential for making thyroid hormones, which control metabolism, energy, and growth. This test may help check if you’re getting enough iodine from your diet or if thyroid-related symptoms could be linked to low or high iodine levels.
-
Heavy Metals & ToxicologyStrontiumConcerned about workplace exposure or bone health? The Strontium Blood Test measures strontium levels in the body. While small amounts may come from diet or supplements, high levels usually come from industrial exposure. This test may help check for overexposure or monitor whether strontium is affecting your bones or overall health.
-
Infectious Disease ScreeningUrine Micro/Culture/Sensitivities (Urine MCS)Urine Micro/Culture/Sensitivities (Urine MCS) tests check for bacteria, fungi, or other microbes in the urine. The microscopy stage looks for cells, crystals, and signs of infection or inflammation. If bacteria are found, a culture grows them to confirm the type, and sensitivity testing shows which antibiotics are most effective. This test is a key tool for diagnosing urinary tract infections (UTIs) and guiding the right treatment.
-
