15 entries
8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) — lab reference
Urine/plasma method, creatinine correction, collection timing, and assay matter.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingAntioxidant Protection Assay (APA) — lab reference
Use report-defined protection categories and Purser Wellness clinical prioritization.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingCatalase activity — lab reference
Method-specific; establish clinical use and repeatability.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingCMA intracellular micronutrient panel — lab reference
Use Cell Science Systems method-specific categories. Dr. Purser to approve clinic severity and target language.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingCytokine panel — lab reference
Define genes/analytes, specimen, assay, repeatability, and how results change management.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingF2-isoprostanes — lab reference
Urine/plasma and mass-spec/immunoassay results are not interchangeable.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingGenetic variants / SNP findings — lab reference
Classify by evidence, zygosity, phenotype, and clinical actionability rather than a numeric range.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingGSH/GSSG ratio — lab reference
Only meaningful when both analytes use a validated paired method.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingHeavy metals, blood or urine — lab reference
Specimen choice, timing, recent seafood/supplements, provoked vs unprovoked collection, and public-health thresholds matter.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingMyeloperoxidase (MPO) — lab reference
Assay and indication-specific.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingOxidized glutathione (GSSG) — lab reference
Specify method and stabilization protocol.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingOxidized LDL — lab reference
Use exact laboratory interval. Clinical utility and treatment targets are not universally standardized.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingReduced glutathione (GSH) — lab reference
Specify whole blood, RBC, plasma, or intracellular method. Preanalytic handling is critical.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingSuperoxide dismutase activity — lab reference
RBC, plasma, and cellular assays are not interchangeable.
Specialty Wellness, Oxidative Stress, and Functional TestingTMAO — lab reference
Diet, kidney function, microbiome, timing, and assay affect results.
