What does it detect?
The kidney function profile is about two small secondary organs that produce urine. These are responsible for filtering toxins in blood and achieving a balance of water, ions and pH.
Why should you get one?
Various causes can cause kidney pain and sometimes be confused with back pain. When the kidneys are affected for various reasons, they can no longer balance salts, minerals, calcium and water in the blood.
If you have diabetes.
- Diabetes risks or suspicions
- High Blood Pressure.
- Family history of kidney disease.
- If you use prohibited substances.
5 BioMarkers:
- Urea: gauges how well your kidneys are functioning.
- Creatinine: determines malfunction or failure of your kidneys.
- Phosphate: Is essential for producing energy, muscles, nerve function and bone growth. Measures the amount of phosphate in your blood.
- Albumin: measures the amount of protein in the transparent liquid portion of the blood.
- Bicarbonate: healthy kidneys help keep your bicarbonate levels in balance. Measures the amount of bicarbonate in your blood.
How does it work?
Please make your appointment online and visit us on-site to have your blood drawn by our Registered Nurse. Please note that you must present your ID for your work.

Complete the Sample with the staff and hand to the Laboratory for Processing
Lastly, once your results are ready, we will send you an email with your Result. Also you can view the report in your Dashboard.
How long will it take to get my results?
The target turnaround time for results is one working day. The turnaround time is a guide only and sometimes depends on assay run schedules.

What is the Scientific Data from Instrument and Reagent Supplier?
Technology Method:
Fully automatic biochemistry analyser
Limit of Detection:
- Urea: 0.9 mmol/L
- Creatinine: 22 umol/L
- Phosphate: 1 mmol/L
- Bicarbonate: 0.749 mmol/L
- Albumin: 10 g/L
Accuracy and Precision:
- Urea: The approximate error is < ± 10%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 5%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 5%.
- Creatinine: The approximate error is < ± 15%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 3.62%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 4.12%.
- Phosphate: The approximate error is < ± 10%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 5%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 10%.
- Bicarbonate: The within-assay CV is ≤ 3.93%. The total precision is ≤ 7.86%.
- Albumin: The approximate error is < ± 4%. The within-assay CV is ≤ 3%. The between-assay CV is ≤ 5%.
Measuring Ranges:
- Urea: 0.9~35.7 mmol/L
- Creatinine: 22~3000 umol/L
- Phosphate: 0~4.0 mmol/L
- Bicarbonate: 0.749~47.1 mmol/L
- Albumin: 10~60 g/L
Validation-Active Information:
- EQA: Yes
- Inter-laboratory validations
- Periodic according to the validation schedule
- Event-triggered- Qc/Calibration/New materials/Batch
Accuracy and Precision:
The accuracy relies on the approximate error percentage. This percentage is the percentage deviation from the actual result. The precision relies on the within-assay coefficient of variations and the between-assay coefficient. The within-assay coefficient of variations is the variance of the result value if the same test was analysed again. The between assay coefficient is the variance of the result value if the same sample was reprocessed from the beginning again.
In range results:
Urea: 2.9~8.2 mmol/L
Creatinine:
- Females: 35~80 umol/L
- Males: 44~97 umol/L
Phosphate: 0.81~1.45 mmol/L
Bicarbonate:
- Arterial: 21~28 mmol/L
- Venous: 22~29 mmol/L
Albumin: 34~48 g/L
