A GGT blood test is normally ordered to assess for liver injury or biliary obstruction. Both of these conditions will usually result in an elevated GGT level. Gamma glutamyl transferase is an enzyme that is mainly produced by the pancreas, heart and liver. Levels can become high if any of t...
it breaks down glucose to use as energy instead. This process creates lactic acid in the blood. Normally, the kidneys and liver filter out excess lactic acid and turn it back into glucose, which can be used as energy in the future. Lactic acid also spurs your immune system to repair and...

The hematocrit test indicates the percentage of blood by volume that is composed of red blood cells. The hematocrit blood test determines the percentage of red blood cells (RBC's) in the blood. Blood is composed mainly of red blood cells and white blood cells suspended in an almost clear ...
If a TSH test result is unexpected, simply repeating the test is often the best course of action. Errors can occur during the blood draw, in transcribing the results, or due to mix-ups in the lab. Statistically, there is always a risk of lab error, and results should always be interpre...
7a). As a preliminary test, the mean fluorescence intensities of CD4+ T lymphocytes in blood samples from healthy individuals (10 samples, Supplementary Fig. S30) and patients with different diseases/states were determined, including HIV (10 samples, Supplementary Fig. S31), tumors (10 samples,...

permutation tests were performed with 2000-fold repetition. Statistical significance of metabolite level differences was assessed with paired parametric t-test using Mann–Witney and Bonferroni correction.Pvalues and false discovery rates (FDR; q-value) less than 0.05 were considered statistically ...
Total genomic DNA was extracted according to the manufacturer’s instructions from larval fish mixes using the DNeasy Blood and Tissue kit (Qiagen) and normalized using sterile water to 10 ng template DNA/μL. The genetic marker was a 658 base pair (bp) section of the 5′ end of the ...
