Folate deficiency, a lack of vitamin B9, can lead to fatigue, weakness, and even birth defects.
Red Blood Cells
Pernicious Anemia
Pernicious anemia, an autoimmune condition, disrupts vitamin B12 absorption. This leads to fatigue, nerve problems, and a special type of anemia. Early diagnosis and B12 replacement therapy are key for good health.
Vitamin B12 Deficiency Anemia
Vitamin B12 keeps the red cells & nerves healthy, but deficiency can lead to fatigue, numbness, and weakness. Early diagnosis is key to prevent complications.
Severe Malarial Anemia
Malaria, a mosquito-borne illness, can cause severe anemia (low red blood cells) leading to weakness & fatigue. While most malaria cases are mild, severe anemia requires prompt medical attention.

Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA)
AIHA: When your own immune system attacks healthy red blood cells, causing anemia. Treatment aims to suppress this immune response
Hemolytic Anemia
Hemolytic anemia occurs when red blood cells are destroyed faster than they’re produced, leading to fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath.
Agarose Gel Electrophoresis Preparation for PCR
Agarose gel electrophoresis: where we separate and visualize amplified DNA fragments.
Sickle Cell Test
This test unmasks sickle cells: crescent shadows under the microscope, revealing HbS’s hidden grip on red blood cells.
Hemolysate Preparation for Hb Electrophoresis or Alkaline Denaturation Tests
Red blood cells lysed to release hemoglobin for Hb electrophoresis and alkaline denaturation test. Hemolysate preparation requires careful steps to ensure accuracy and reliability of results.
Alpha Thalassemia
Alpha thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder that causes less alpha globin production, leading to less hemoglobin formation thus resulting in anemia.
