The Adenosine Deaminase (ADA), Plasma test measures the level of ADA enzyme in the blood plasma. ADA is involved in the metabolism of purines and plays a role in the development and maintenance of the immune system, especially T-lymphocytes.
This test is commonly used as a supportive diagnostic tool for:
Tuberculosis (TB) – especially tuberculous pleuritis when ADA is elevated in pleural fluid.
Other infections or conditions with immune activation, such as sarcoidosis or certain malignancies.

ADA is an enzyme involved in the breakdown of adenosine, which plays a role in the immune system. This test is commonly used to help detect or rule out tuberculosis (TB), especially TB affecting the lungs or the fluid around the lungs (pleural TB).

The Albumin test measures the level of albumin, a protein made by the liver, in your blood. Albumin helps keep fluid in your blood vessels and carries hormones, vitamins, and medicines throughout your body. It is a marker of liver function, kidney health, and nutritional status.

This test measures the ratio between two types of proteins in your blood: albumin and globulin.

Albumin helps keep fluid in your blood vessels and carries hormones, vitamins, and other substances.

Globulin supports your immune system and helps fight infections.

This test measures the amount of albumin (a type of protein) in your urine collected over 24 hours. Normally, urine has little or no albumin. If albumin is present in high amounts, it may be a sign of kidney damage or disease, especially in people with diabetes or high blood pressure.

This test measures the amount of albumin, a type of protein, in a body fluid sample (like pleural fluid, peritoneal/ascitic fluid, or others). Albumin helps doctors understand whether the fluid buildup is due to a medical condition like infection, inflammation, or liver disease.

It helps to:

• Differentiate between transudate and exudate fluid.
• Assess causes of fluid accumulation

The Albumin/Creatinine Ratio (ACR) test is a urine test used to check for early signs of kidney damage, especially in people with diabetes or high blood pressure.

• Albumin is a type of protein that should not be present in large amounts in urine.
• Creatinine is a waste product that your body normally removes through urine.

The ACR test compares the amount of albumin to creatinine in a urine sample. This helps doctors find even small amounts of protein leakage from the kidneys — an early sign that the kidneys might not be working properly.

The Aldolase test measures the level of aldolase enzyme in your blood. This enzyme helps break down sugars to produce energy and is mostly found in muscles. 

To check for muscle damage or disease, such as:

• Muscular dystrophy
• Inflammatory muscle conditions (like polymyositis or dermatomyositis)
• Sometimes used to monitor liver or heart issues (though other tests are more common now)

This test checks for the presence of ASO antibodies in the blood. These antibodies are produced by the body in response to a Streptococcus bacterial infection (like strep throat or skin infection).

• Purpose: To find out if you've had a recent strep infection.
• Why it matters: A past strep infection can lead to complications like rheumatic fever or kidney problems if not treated properly.
• Qualitative result: The test only shows whether ASO antibodies are present or not (positive or negative), not the exact amount.

The ASO Quantitative test measures the amount of Anti Streptolysin O (ASO) antibodies in the blood. These antibodies are produced by the body in response to a Streptococcus bacterial infection, such as strep throat or skin infections.
