To diagnose an infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). Helicobacter Pylori H. Pylori is a spiral-shaped bacterium and attack the lining of the stomach. Due to its spiral shape, it penetrates into the stomach and gets protected by the mucus. Hence, immune cells are not able to reach them. This bacteria cause serious stomach problems like peptic ulcer, gastritis and most of the stomach ulcers. Antigens are the foreign substances that induce the immune responses to produce antibodies in the human body.

This is one of the more sensitive tests for presence of HIV infection by detecting HIV antigens and antibodies in blood.
Blood.
No specific patient preparation protocol required. Inform the doctor if you are on any medications, have any allergies or underlying medical conditions before your this test
The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), also known as an enzyme immunoassay (EIA), detects HIV antibodies and antigens in the blood. Antibodies are proteins produced by the immune system, which helps your body fight disease. The immune system produces the antibodies in response to the presence of foreign substances, such as viruses. By contrast, antigens are any foreign substance in the body that causes the immune system to respond.

UGX 65,000D-Dimer
D-dimer tests are used to help rule out the presence of an inappropriate blood clot (thrombus).
Blood.
No specific patient preparation protocol required. Inform the doctor if you are on any medications, have any allergies or underlying medical conditions before this test
D-dimer is one of the protein fragments produced when a blood clot gets dissolved in the body. It is normally undetectable or detectable at a very low level unless the body is forming and breaking down blood clots, then its level in the blood can significantly rise. While clots most commonly form in the veins of the legs, they may also form in other areas as well. Measurements of D-dimer can be used to help detect clots in any of these sites. For example, clots in coronary arteries are the cause of myocardial infarction (heart attacks).

UGX 75,000ELECTROLYTES
This test measures the levels of electrolytes (Sodium, Potasium, Chloride, Calcium) in blood to check for an electrolyte imbalance.
Blood.
No specific patient preparation protocol required. Inform your doctor if you are on any medications or have any underlying medical conditions or allergies before undergoing this test.
The electrolyte panel measures the blood levels of the main electrolytes in the body: sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), chloride (Cl-), and bicarbonate (HCO3-). Electrolytes are minerals that are found in body tissues and blood in the form of dissolved salts. As electrically charged particles, electrolytes help move nutrients into and wastes out of the body’s cells, maintain a healthy water balance, and help stabilize the body’s acid/base (pH) level. The electrolytes also help in the proper functioning of the nervous and endocrine systems, and in bodily cell to cell communication.

UGX 35,000C-REACTIVE PROTEIN (CRP)
This test (C-reactive protein) helps to detect inflammation from acute infections, burns, trauma and many other conditions that would cause inflammation. It is also used to monitor severity of diseases in chronic conditions.
Blood.
No specific patient preparation protocol required. Inform your doctor if you are on any medications or have any underlying medical conditions or allergies before undergoing this test.
A CRP test measures the amount of CRP in the blood to detect inflammation due to acute conditions or to monitor the severity of disease in chronic conditions. C-reactive protein (CRP) is a protein made by the liver. CRP levels in the blood increase when there is a condition causing inflammation somewhere in the body. CRP is a non-specific indicator of inflammation and one of the most sensitive acute phase reactants. That means that it is released into the blood within a few hours after an injury, the start of an infection, or other cause of inflammation.

UGX 60,000Estradiol
An estradiol test is a simple blood test to measure the amount of estradiol hormone during assessment of fertility or treatment.
Blood.
None, but early morning samples are preferred and the timing of a woman’s sample will be correlated with her menstrual cycle or, if pregnant, with the gestational age of the baby.
Estradiol (E2) is primarily produced in the ovaries under stimulation of FSH and LH in pre-menopausal women and in the testicles in men. E2 is converted from E1 in post-menopausal women. It is the most potent estrogen and the one that is present in the highest concentration in non-pregnant, pre-menopausal women. E2 levels vary depending on a woman’s age and reproductive status. They are a good marker of ovarian function. Increased or decreased levels of estrogens are seen in many metabolic conditions i.e. Hyperthyroidism, Cirrhosis, Turner syndrome, hypopituitarism, female hypogonadism, Polycystic ovary syndrome.

This a screening test for the diagnosis of brucellosis in the human body.
Blood.
No specific patient preparation protocol required. Inform your doctor if you are on any medications or have any underlying medical conditions or allergies before undergoing this test.
Brucellolis is a zoonotic disease (disease that attacks both humans and animals), caused by different types of the brucella bacteria. When humans come in contact with an infected animal or animal products that are contaminated with Brucella, brucellosis may result. Most human infections are occupational. Infection is generally via skin wounds, but the organisms can also be inhaled. Another common route of Brucella infection is eating or drinking infected dairy products and (meat)that have not been pasteurized.

UGX 10,000Semen Analysis
A complete semen analysis measures the quantity and quality of the fluid released during ejaculation often used in the evaluation of male infertility.
Semen.
For infertility testing, refrain from having sex or masturbation for 2-5 days before sample collection; carefully follow instructions provided.
Semen is a viscous, whitish liquid that contains sperm and the products from several glands. In an evaluation of a man’s fertility, each aspect of the semen analysis is considered i.e. viscocity, volume, motility, morphology, sperm concentration, semen PH, fructose, white blood cells, clamping as well as the findings as a whole. Semen from a man can vary widely from sample to sample. Abnormal results on one sample may not indicate a cause of infertility, and multiple samples may need to be tested before a diagnosis is made

UGX 60,000Creatinine
A carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) test is a blood test used to help diagnose and manage certain types of cancers during treatment.
Blood.
You may be instructed to fast overnight or refrain from eating cooked meat; some studies have shown that eating cooked meat prior to testing can temporarily increase the level of creatinine. If a 24-hour urine sample is being collected, it is important to save all the urine produced during that time period.
Both creatine and creatinine are produced by the body at a relatively constant rate. Since almost all creatinine is filtered from the blood by the kidneys and released into the urine, blood levels are usually a good indicator of how well the kidneys are working. The amount of creatinine you produce depends on your body size and your muscle mass. For this reason, creatinine levels are usually slightly higher in men than in women and children. Results from a blood creatinine test may be used in combination with results from other tests, such as a 24-hour urine creatinine test, to calculate values that are used to evaluate kidney function.

UGX 20,000URIC ACID
This blood test is used to check for gout and also monitor people undergoing chemotherapy or radiation treatment for cancer.
Blood.
No specific patient preparation protocol required. Inform your doctor if you are on any medications or have any underlying medical conditions or allergies before undergoing this test.
Uric acid is produced by the breakdown of purines. Purines are nitrogen-containing compounds found in the cells of the body, including our DNA. If too much uric acid is produced or not enough is removed, it can accumulate in the body, causing increased levels in the blood (hyperuricemia). The presence of excess uric acid can cause gout, a condition characterized by inflammation of the joints due to the formation of uric acid crystals in the joint (synovial) fluid. Excess uric acid can also be deposited in tissues such as the kidney, leading to kidney stones or kidney failure.

This tests is used to screen for prostate cancer however, PSA levels are also affected by other things such as enlarges prostate, a urinary tract infection or recent ejaculation.
Blood.
No specific patient preparation protocol required.
Prostate specific antigen (PSA) is a protein produced primarily by cells in the prostate, a small gland that encircles the urethra in males and produces a fluid that makes up part of semen. Most of the PSA that the prostate produces is released into this fluid, but small amounts of it are also released into the bloodstream. Prostate-specific antigen test indicates the presence of prostate cancer, prostatitis or an enlarged prostate gland in men.

UGX 75,000Luitenising Hormone
This test measures the amount of luteinizing hormone in the blood. (LH) is a hormone associated with reproduction. Its stimulation of either ovary or testicles results in the release of an egg from the ovary (ovulation) in women or testosterone production in men.
Blood.
Early morning samples are preferred. A woman’s sample should be collected at specific times during her menstrual cycle. Inform the doctor if you are on any medications, have any allergies or underlying medical conditions before this test.
LH is produced by the pituitary gland. In women of childbearing age, several hormones (LH, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), estrogen and progesterone) rise and fall in a specific sequence during each menstrual cycle. In men, LH stimulates Leydig cells in the testicles to produce testosterone. In infants and children, LH levels rise shortly after birth and then fall to very low levels. Results of an LH test are typically considered with results of other hormone tests, such as FSH, estrogens, and/or testosterone.
