Blood Chemistry
In this service, we offer routine checkups for blood samples using Fuji biochemical slides. we check several enzyme activities, such as GOT, GPT, CPK, ALP, LDH, as well as the levels of important compositions in the blood samples including GLU, BUN, CRE, UA, TCHO, HDL, TG, TBIL, Ca, TP, ALB, IP, AMYL, LAP, CKMB, CHE, D-BIL, Mg content and ammonia content.
Fuji Dri-Chem 4000i is used for all measurements in this service. Only a small amount of blood is needed for this sample, around 10ul, for each test. Each test is analyzed on its own slide.
Note
- Ammonia (NH3) - Whole blood required.
- Amylase (AMYL) - Pleas make 5- fold dilution with PBS or dd water on your samples before sending your samples to TMC.
- Leucine Aminopeptidase (LAP), Cholinesterase (CHE), D-Bilirubin (D-BIL) - Please order any of these items for yourselves because the ordering process for these 3 items takes at least 3 months. However, TMC will offer the manipulation for users.
