Haematology (3 Biomarkers)
Haemoglobin A2
Red Blood Cells (5 Biomarkers)
The most prevalent form of blood cell, the red blood cell, is responsible for transporting oxygen to your tissues through your circulatory system.
Your bone marrow continuously produces red blood cells to replace those that are lost as a result of bleeding or cell ageing.
Your red cell count should remain consistent, but some health issues can result in abnormally few or excessively numerous red cells, abnormally fast cell death, or abnormally shaped red cells.
The amount of oxygen given to your tissues is affected if you are not creating enough red blood cells, which causes anaemia and its accompanying symptoms of weariness and pale skin. Headaches, blurred vision, and an enlarged spleen can all be symptoms of excessive red blood cell production.
Haematocrit
The haematocrit (HCT) scale measures how much space (volume) red blood cells occupy inside the blood.
Haemoglobin
Red blood cells contain the protein haemoglobin, which is responsible for the red colour of the blood and for carrying oxygen throughout the body.
This test gauges the blood's capacity to transport oxygen throughout the body by counting the amount of haemoglobin present.
Because they need to make sure that their muscles are getting enough oxygen, athletes and sports persons typically have higher oxygen demands than the normal person. In endurance and strength athletes, it is typical to detect haemoglobin levels at the higher end of the normal range.
MCH
The average amount of haemoglobin found in one of your red blood cells is measured by MCH (mean corpuscular hemoglobin).
MCV
Your red blood cells' average size can be determined by your MCV (mean corpuscular volume).
This is crucial to evaluate because it can show how much oxygen your cells are probably transferring throughout the body.
Red Cell Count
Analyzing the quantity of red blood cells in the blood is known as red blood cell (RBC) counting.
Oxygen is transported by red blood cells from the lungs to the rest of the body, where it can be used as a source of energy for activities like breathing and moving about. Additionally, they transport the carbon dioxide that cells make back to the lungs for exhalation.
