About Our Blood Type Test (ABO Grouping and Rh Typing)
Note: Fasting is not required for this test.
The Blood Type Test is performed to determine a person's blood type representing markers (called antigens) on the surface of red blood cells. This test will tell indicate if you're A, B, AB or O, and whether that blood type is positive or negative.
There are many types of blood, even though they are made of the same elements. There are eight different common blood types. These eight types are determined by the presence or absence of certain antigens. Antigens can trigger responses from the immune system to foreign substances in the body, including transfused blood in a patient.
There are four major blood groups determined by the presence or absence of two antigens (A and B) on the surface of red blood cells. They are:
-
Group A – has only the A antigen on red cells (and B antibody in the plasma)
- A can donate red blood cells to other As, as well as those in the AB group.
-
Group B – has only the B antigen on red cells (and A antibody in the plasma)
- B can donate red blood cells to Group B and the AB Group.
-
Group AB – has both A and B antigens on red cells (but neither A nor B antibody in the plasma)
- AB can only donate to other ABs, but can receive from all other types.
-
Group O – has neither A nor B antigens on red cells (but both A and B antibody are in the plasma)
- O can donate red blood cells to anybody; it is universal. However, Group O can only receive from others in Group O.
There is also a third antigen called the Rh factor (Rhesus factor) in addition to antigens A and B.
It can be either present (+) or absent ( – ). In general, Rh negative blood is given to Rh-negative patients, and either Rh positive blood or Rh negative blood may be given to Rh positive patients

Vitamin D 25-Hydroxy (Calcidiol) Blood Test
Note: Fasting is not required for this test.
This test measures Vitamin D 25-Hydroxy (Calcidiol) levels in the blood for deficiencies. The major function of vitamin D in humans is maintenance of calcium homeostasis.
Vitamin D is absorbed through both sunlight and via foods and drinks that are ingested that contain it. This fat-soluble vitamin plays a major growth and development of bones and teeth. Typically, Vitamin D's most common subcategories are Vitamin D2 and D3; Vitamin D2 comes from digesting vitamin D from plant and fungal food sources, and vitamin D3 is absorbed via the skin when it takes in sunlight.
Vitamin D is converted in the kidneys to its active form and helps to control the body's calcium and phosphate levels. It plays an important role in the growth and health of bones and teeth. When levels of vitamin D are too low, it can lead to a drop in calcium levels (hypocalcemia). Symptoms of a vitamin D deficiency include weakness, frequent infections, fatigue, aching and pain.
Malnutrition or conditions that can cause an individual to have poor absorption of nutrients like celiac disease, Crohn's disease, alcoholism or intestinal or gastrointestinal disorders may lead to low levels of vitamin D.

FERRITIN BLOOD TEST
Note: Fasting is not required for this test.
Ferritin is a universal intracellular protein that stores iron and releases it in a controlled fashion. It acts as a buffer against iron deficiency and iron overload. This test is used to measure ferritin levels in the blood.
Ferritin is present in small concentrations that correlate with total-body iron stores, making its measurement valuable for the assessment of disorders relating to iron metabolism.
Ferritin fluctuates with iron levels; when iron levels are low, so are ferritin levels, which can cause symptoms of weakness, fatigue and dizziness. In cases of iron deficiency, hair loss is often one of several symptoms and accompanied by pale skin, brittle nails, or a cold body temperature.
When there is an abundance of iron, there is an increase in ferritin, which can cause swelling of the liver and liver damage, fatigue, weight loss, weakness and sometimes darkening of the skin.
