Individual tests

Creatinine is a waste product your muscles produce as part of regular, everyday activities. Normally, your kidneys filter creatinine from your blood and send it out of the body in your urine. If there is a kidney problem, creatinine can build up in the blood, and less will be released in urine.

Creatinine is a waste byproduct of normal muscle activity. The kidneys remove creatinine from the blood and it is then excreted through urine. A creatinine clearance test assesses how well the kidneys filter blood and is important for detecting and monitoring kidney problems.
The creatinine clearance test helps assess how well the kidneys are working. This test compares creatinine levels in urine and blood.
Your kidneys have tiny filters called glomeruli which remove waste and excess fluid from blood. A glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a blood test that checks how well your kidneys work by estimating how much blood passes through these filters each minute.
The fecal occult blood test (FOBT) checks stool samples for hidden (occult) blood. Occult blood in the stool may indicate colon cancer or polyps in the colon or rectum — though not all cancers or polyps bleed. If blood is detected through a fecal occult blood test, additional tests such as a colonoscopy may help determine the source of the bleeding. The fecal occult blood test can only detect the presence or absence of blood — it can't determine what's causing the bleeding.
Ferritin is a protein that stores iron inside your cells. You need iron to make healthy red blood cells, and it is vital for muscles, bone marrow, organs, and brain development in children. Low ferritin levels may indicate iron deficiency anemia or another related condition. High ferritin levels can indicate there is excess iron in your body, suggesting liver disease, hyperthyroidism, or alcohol abuse.
Serum iron test measures the amount of iron in the blood. Transferrin test measures transferrin, a protein that moves iron throughout the body. Total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) measures how well iron attaches to transferrin and other proteins in the blood. These tests help to detect the cause of anemia relating to iron deficiency.
The microalbumin test helps find small amounts of albumin that normal urinary tests can not detect. Microalbumin tests can detect kidney damage early.

Albumin is the main protein in blood. When healthy kidneys clean waste from your blood, at most, a trace of albumin will get through the filters. Small amounts of albumin in urine, sometimes called microalbumin, can indicate possible kidney disease. Microalbumin:creatinine ratio urine test checks for very small amounts of albumin in a urine sample.
