Clinical Biochemistry
The Biochemistry Department is headed by Dr.Md.Moinuddin, MD, Biochemistry with a team of highly qualified, experienced, knowledgeable and motivated technical staff.

Chemical Biochemistry (also known as clinical chemistry or chemical pathology) is the study of chemical and biochemical mechanisms of the body in relation to disease, mostly through the analysis of body fluids such as blood or urine.

There are “N” number of situations that require clinical tests, like in a case of heart attack, there would be significant changes in the chemical composition of body fluids such as the raised blood enzymes due to their release from damaged heart muscles. There would be a raised blood sugar in case of diabetes mellitus due to lack of insulin to help tissues take up the glucose.

Clinical biochemistry has tests that are designed to detect these changes qualitatively or quantitatively compared to results from healthy people.

Clinical biochemistry also includes a wide range of analytical techniques such as molecular diagnostics, measurement of enzyme activities, spectrophotometry, electrophoresis and immunoassays

At Cpathlabs, our technical staff manage highly automated equipments with inbuilt testing systems that produces thousands of results every hour. The staff also have practical, analytical and interpretive skills to quickly confirm and sign off the reports.

Our state of the art equipments perform the routine biochemical tests for patient care along with speciality and super speciality investigations as requested by clinicians and doctors.

The following table highlights a list of such tests.

Sl No	Equipment Name & Manufacturer	Equipment Features	Broad Test Group
1	Dimension Xpand Plus / RXL Max	Full range integrated capability of chemistry and Immunoassay Ability to run up to 91 parameters	General chemistry Enzymes Endocrinology Therapeutic drug monitoring Immuno suppressive drugs Urine-drugs-of-abuse Cardiac markers Tumour markers Specific proteins
	Architect 1000 immunoassay analyser	Continuous reagent loading Common architect reagents ingle robotic sampling h andler Unique probe wash	Thyroid Fertility Metabolic Cancer Hepatitis Cardiac Torch Transplant panel
	Immulite 1000 from Siemens	Full range of integrated capability of chemistry and immunoassay Up to 91 parameters Continues sample and reagent loading	Allergy Metabolism Auto immune Bone metabolism Cardiac Diabetes Growth markers Hepatities

All the above tests are conducted in adherence to strict quality control measures suggested by NABL and CAT. We use high quality reagents supplied by the equipment manufacturer and also conduct calibration and trial runs for batches as indicated by the manufacturers..
