ABO Grouping Blood Type – Quest
Know Your Blood Type
ABO Grouping is the classification system used to determine blood types. This system is used because antibodies needed for testing are consistent and naturally present in the serum of those blood types. The potential blood types are: O positive, O negative, A positive, A negative, B positive, B negative, AB positive and AB negative. The universal donor is O negative. The universal recipient is AB positive.
Knowing your blood type may be used for:
- General Information.
- Information to become a blood or organ donor.
- Information related to specific dietary needs.
- Information related to specific disease processes.

Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH)
$52.00 Add to cart
Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH)
This blood test is used to measure Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) levels. ACTH levels are measured to help identify and monitor health conditions related to excessive or deficient cortisol in the body. Adrenocorticotropic hormone is one of four major adrenal cortical hormones and is produced by the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. Adrenocorticotropic hormone stimulates the secretion of cortisone and aldosterone. Cholesterol is required for the production of all adrenal cortical hormones. Testosterone, estrogen, cortisol and aldosterone are all adrenal cortical hormones.

Aluminum (Blood)

Aluminum (Blood)
This blood test measures Aluminum levels. Aluminum is a common element in the earth’s crust and is found in small amounts in many household and personal care products. There are concerns that aluminum exposure from either diet or the environment may be related to Alzheimer’s disease. To date, research has yet to prove that aluminum is a causative agent in Alzheimer’s disease. However, research has documented that aluminum does accumulate in higher amounts in the brain tissue of people with a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease, as well as Parkinson’s disease.

Ammonia (Blood)
This blood test is also known as Blood Ammonia; Blood. Ammonia is a by-product of normal protein metabolism and is also created by bacteria such as H.Pylori (Research estimates half of the worlds population is infected with H.Pylori) in the stomach, as well as other bacteria in the intestines.

Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH) Profile
$168.00 Add to cart
Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH) Profile
This blood test measures Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH) level. Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH) is also known as vasopressin. Antidiuretic hormone is a polypeptide hormone secreted by the posterior portion of the pituitary gland. Antidiuretic hormone is secreted when specialized cells in the brain or heart detect a change in the concentration of blood or blood pressure. Antidiuretic hormone causes blood vessels to constrict which elevates blood pressure and reduces the amount of water lost in urine.

Antinuclear Antibody (ANA) with Reflex
This blood test is used to detect antibodies to nuclear antigens. The antibodies may be present in higher than normal numbers in autoimmune disease. A positive Antinuclear Antibody (ANA) test result may suggest an autoimmune disorder such as systemic lupus or Hashimoto’s disease. However, the test may also be positive in people with allergies as well as in older populations without identified health problems.

APO Lipoprotein Eval
$57.00 Add to cart
APO Lipoprotein Eval
This fasting blood test is used to measure Apolipoprotein A-I (APO I), a major protein component of high density lipoprotein (HDL) in blood plasma. APO-I is a major component of the high-density lipoprotein complex frequently referred to as the good cholesterol which helps to clear cholesterol from arteries. Apolipoprotein B is attached to the LDL cholesterol molecule whose major role is to carry cholesterol to the tissues. The measurement of APO-B is considered to be a better indicator of risk for arterial plaque than LDL cholesterol. Research indicates the Apolipoprotein I B ratio may be a better indicator of cardiovascular disease than other cholesterol measures.

Arsenic (Blood)

Arsenic (Blood)
This blood test is used to measure Arsenic levels. Arsenic is a common cause of acute poisoning through heavy metals. Arsenic enters the environment through the smelting of copper, zinc and lead and is released through the manufacturing of certain chemicals. Pesticides that contain arsenic, when manufactured, release arsine gas. Arsenic has been found in water supplies around the world, which has the potential to leach into seafood. Arsenic is found in rat poisoning, fungicides and products used to protect wood. Arsenic toxicity affects the blood, kidneys, skin, digestive tract and central nervous system.

B Type Naturetic Peptide (BNP)
This blood test is used to measure B Naturetic Peptide (BNP) levels. B Naturetic Peptide has been used as a marker of heart disease risk when there is no clinical evidence of cardiovascular disease. B type Naturetic Peptide (Brain Derived Naturetic Peptide – BNP) is a small protein secreted by the ventricles of the heart in response to excessive stretching of the heart muscles cells. BNP is secreted into the blood when the heart is working hard. BNP levels maybe elevated with heart failure, left ventricular dysfunction and renal failure. When evaluating a BNP level, it is important to realize that other factors may also affect a BNP.

Benzene (Blood)

Benzene (Blood)
This blood test is used to monitor exposure to benzene. Benzene is an organic compound that is found in nature and is also manmade. Natural sources of benzene are volcanoes and forest fires. Benzene is also a natural component of crude oil and cigarette smoke and is one of the most basic petrochemicals used in the production of gasoline. Benzene has been described as having a sweet odor. It evaporates very quickly when exposed to air and dissolves quickly in water.
