Chloride details

Description

Chloride is an electrolyte that works closely with sodium and potassium to maintain your body's fluid balance, blood volume, and acid-base status, and it's typically reported as part of a basic or comprehensive metabolic panel. Chloride levels usually move in the same direction as sodium, so abnormal results are generally interpreted alongside sodium, potassium, and bicarbonate (CO2) rather than on their own. Elevated chloride can occur with dehydration or certain kidney and metabolic conditions, while low chloride can occur with prolonged vomiting, certain diuretic medications, or conditions causing fluid or electrolyte loss.

Chloride

 $5.99

Chloride is an electrolyte that helps maintain the body’s fluid balance, acid-base balance, and electrical neutrality in cells. It is usually measured as part of a basic or comprehensive metabolic panel. Abnormal chloride levels can indicate issues such as dehydration, kidney disease, or acid-base disorders (like metabolic acidosis or alkalosis).

  • Chloride An electrolyte that works with sodium and potassium to maintain fluid balance and acid-base status in your body.
  • Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) A liver enzyme released into the blood when liver cells are damaged. One of the main markers used to screen for liver inflammation or injury.
  • Glucose Your blood sugar level at the time of the test — a core marker for diagnosing and monitoring diabetes and metabolic health.
  • BUN/Creatinine Ratio Compares two kidney-related waste markers to help distinguish the cause of abnormal kidney values, such as dehydration versus a kidney-specific problem.
  • Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP) An enzyme found mainly in the liver and bones. High levels can signal liver disease, bile duct blockage, or bone conditions.
  • Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimated glomerular filtration rate — a calculated estimate of how well your kidneys are filtering waste from your blood, based on creatinine and other factors.
  • Globulin A group of blood proteins that includes antibodies and various transport proteins. Assessed together with albumin to evaluate liver, kidney, and immune function.
  • Creatinine A waste product from muscle metabolism, filtered by your kidneys. One of the main markers used to assess kidney function.
  • Total Bilirubin The combined level of both processed and unprocessed bilirubin in your blood, a byproduct of red blood cell breakdown. Used to evaluate liver function and jaundice.
  • Carbon Dioxide Reflects the bicarbonate level in your blood, a key part of your body's acid-base balance. Abnormal levels can point to metabolic or respiratory issues.
  • Calcium Measures the total calcium in your blood, important for bone health, muscle function, nerve signaling, and blood clotting.
  • Sodium An essential electrolyte that regulates fluid balance, blood pressure, and nerve and muscle function.
  • Potassium An essential electrolyte that plays a critical role in heart rhythm, muscle function, and nerve signaling.
  • Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) An enzyme found in the liver, heart, and muscles. Elevated levels can point to liver damage, though it's less liver-specific than ALT.
  • Albumin/Globulin Ratio Compares your two main blood protein types, albumin and globulin. An abnormal ratio can point toward liver disease, kidney problems, or immune system conditions.
  • Blood Urea Nitrogen Blood urea nitrogen, a waste product filtered by your kidneys. Used along with creatinine to assess kidney function and hydration status.
  • Calcium (Adjusted For Albumin)
  • Total Protein The combined amount of all proteins in your blood, mainly albumin and globulins, used to help evaluate liver, kidney, and nutritional status.

Comprehensive Metabolic Panel with Albumin/Globulin Ratio

 $9.49

This is a set of tests that gives a broad overview of your body's chemical balance and metabolism. It checks your blood's levels of important substances like electrolytes, calcium, phosphorus, and glucose. It also looks at how well your kidneys and liver are working and your body's acid-base balance. This panel is often part of a routine health check to spot any disorders, especially those affecting the liver or kidneys.
