The laboratory environment has been characterized by ongoing rapid and dramatic innovation.
​Innovation in laboratory technology, which includes both new tests and advances in analyser and testing techniques, has made testing more efficient, accurate and automated.
Automation has been, and promises to continue to be, an important factor in improving availability and quality of diagnostic services. Automation provides standardized results and reduces the “human error” significantly as automation will take over manual work by Lab. Technicians like preparing reagents, mixing samples and reagents and incubating and reading the result manually
The HumaCLIA 150 analyser is developed to run a broad range of tests like Thyroid hormones, Fertility hormones, Vitamin levels, Tumor markers, Cardiac markers, Infectious Diseases, Bone and Inflammation markers and speciality assays like Vitamin D or Anti-Müllerian Hormone.
The HumaCLIA 150 is a sophisticated fully-automated immunoassay analyzer. Its chemiluminescence technology is based on acridinium ester allowing for high assay sensitivity and high assay robustness.
Thyroid hormones
We are offering the following thyroid hormones and function tests:
​
-
Thyrotropin ELISA (TSH)
-
Free triiodothyronine ELISA (fT3)
-
Free thyroxine ELISA (fT4)
The thyroid gland produces hormones that regulate the body's metabolic rate, controlling heart, muscle and digestive function, brain development and bone maintenance.
The endocrine system is a series of glands that produce & secrete hormones that the body uses for a wide range of functions..
Hormones traveling through the bloodstream to various organs and tissues in the body.
The hormones then tell these organs and tissues what to do or how to function.
Please see below a list of available hormone tests.

Tumor markers
Tumor markers are substances found in higher-than-normal levels in the blood, urine, or tissues of some people with cancer. These substances, which are also called biomarkers, can be made by the tumor. They can also be made by healthy cells in response to the tumor. Tumor marker tests check to see if you have these substances in your body and in what amounts.
We offer the following tumor markers level tests:
-
Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)
-
Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)
-
Total prostate-specific antigen (PSA)
-
Free prostate-specific antigen (fPSA)
-
CA 125 AG (Cancer Antigen 125)
-
CA 15-3 AG (Cancer Antigen 15-3)
