At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the VITAMIN D 25 - HYDROXY Test to measure the level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in the body. This test is essential in assessing Vitamin D deficiency and monitoring the effectiveness of Vitamin D supplementation.
This assay measures both D2 and D3 components.
The cost of the VITAMIN D 25 - HYDROXY Test is 360.0 AED.
A minimum of 3 mL (1.5 mL min.) serum from 1 SST is required for the test. Please ship the sample refrigerated or frozen.
Test results are delivered daily.
The VITAMIN D 25 - HYDROXY Test is performed using the Chemiluminescence method.
This test is useful for assessing Disorders of Bone and for general Health Checkups.
The test can be referred by Endocrinologists, Orthopedicians, and Physicians.
The VITAMIN D 25 - HYDROXY Test is conducted in the THYROID & HORMONES department.
No special preparation is required before taking the test.
The Vitamin D 25 - Hydroxy test, also known as the 25-hydroxycholecalciferol test or simply the Vitamin D test, is a blood test that measures the level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in the body. Vitamin D is an essential nutrient that helps regulate calcium and phosphorus levels in the body, supporting healthy bones, teeth, and immune function. It also plays a role in cell growth, neuromuscular function, and reducing inflammation. There are two forms of Vitamin D that are measured in this test: Vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). Vitamin D2 is obtained from plant-based sources, while Vitamin D3 is produced in the skin when exposed to sunlight and is also found in animal-based sources.
The test is typically ordered by a healthcare provider if there is a suspicion of Vitamin D deficiency or to monitor the effectiveness of Vitamin D supplementation. Symptoms of Vitamin D deficiency may include bone pain, muscle weakness, fatigue, and increased susceptibility to infections. The results of the test are reported as a numerical value in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL) or nanomoles per liter (nmol/L). The optimal range for Vitamin D levels may vary depending on the laboratory, but generally, levels between 30-100 ng/mL (75-250 nmol/L) are considered sufficient.
If the test results show a Vitamin D deficiency, the healthcare provider may recommend supplementation with Vitamin D3 or lifestyle modifications such as increased sun exposure and dietary changes. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for interpretation of the test results and appropriate treatment options.
