BioMetrix™ BioScan is a research-use-only test designed to measure biochemical markers in serum samples. This assay provides detailed reporting on over 40 biomarkers to support biochemical research and analysis. It also examines plasmalogen levels and factors influencing plasmalogen biosynthesis. Plasmalogens are phospholipids that play a role in cellular membranes and biochemical processes.
→ Blood Sample Must Be Returned on Dry Ice Pellets
BioMetrix™ BioScan is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or clinical decision-making purposes.
Expect 3-4 weeks for results.
