 Test Code: 1410 Vitamin B1

 Performing Lab: SMA Specialty Medical Lab

 Clinical Significance: Out of four Vitamin B1 forms, the principal biologically active form of thiamine is thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) that serves as a coenzyme for essential decarboxylation reactions for carbohydrates, fats, and alcohol to metabolize and produce energy. In the whole blood roughly 80% of vitamin B1 is present in red blood cells, predominantly in TPP form. The concentration of TPP in erythrocytes has been shown to be a good indicator of the whole body stores because it depletes from erythrocytes at a rate similar to those of other major organs.

BreastDx Clear™

BreastDx Clear™
Test Code: 1250
Test Description BreastDx Clear is a multi-gene test that analyzes 16 breast cancer susceptibility genes. Although all women have some risk of developing breast and/or ovarian cancer at some point in their lives, having a mutation in one of the breast cancer susceptibility genes increases this risk. Men who have a mutation in one of the breast cancer susceptibility genes have an increased risk of breast, prostate, pancreatic, gastric and other cancer types.
