A Guide to At Home Iron Test
At-home iron tests offer a convenient and accessible way to monitor your iron levels and identify potential deficiencies early on
Paroxysmal Cold Hemoglobinuria
Paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria (PCH) is a rare autoimmune anemia. Cold exposure triggers red cell destruction, causing dark urine, back pain, and chills. Diagnosis relies on the Donath-Landsteiner test.
Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH)
Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH): An acquired blood disease where the immune system attacks red cells due to a mutation in the X chromosome.
Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS)
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS): A rare but serious condition causing red blood cell damage, low platelets, and kidney failure. Early diagnosis is key.
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 Disease Test
Explore the Sickle Cell Disease Test: a vital lab protocol for detecting sickle cell disease. Learn its principle, procedure, and result interpretation.
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.
