Antibodies against glutamic acid deoxyriboxylase together with other autoantibodies (anti-islet antibodies, anti-insulin antibodies, anti-tyrosine phosphatase antibodies and zinc transporter 8 antibodies) are used for the differential diagnosis of type I diabetes and LADA (Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults)

This test involves the multiplication of bacteria obtained from a stool sample and their subsequent identification by evaluating the appearance of the bacterial colony in a microbiology laboratory.

Laboratory diagnosis of measles mainly involves determining the immune system's response (antibody production) against the virus antigens. Serological tests help determine the phase of infection (current, past) and assess the effectiveness of vaccination.

Carbamazepine - an antiepileptic drug, also a psychotropic, is also used in various neurological disorders, including preventing trigeminal seizures. The test is performed to monitor blood concentrations during treatment.

Screening test useful in the diagnosis of various autoimmune diseases including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), drug-induced lupus erythematosus, mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD), Sjogren's syndrome, progressive systemic sclerosis (PSS), polymyositis (PM) and dermatomyositis (DM), autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), primary biliary cholangitis (PBC).

Coagulation factor VIII (anti-hemophilic factor A) is a glycoprotein synthesized mainly in liver cells, but also in kidney, endothelial cells and lymphoid tissue. The test can help diagnose hemophilia A or another coagulation disorder.

Test the level of IgE antibodies against human roundworm in the blood.

Pancreatic elastase is the only enzyme secreted by the pancreas that passes unchanged through the entire digestive system. Its amount in the feces therefore directly indicates the physiological state of the pancreas and its ability to produce digestive enzymes.

The test involves the determination of IgE antibodies in the blood and is performed when an allergy to dog dander and epidermis is suspected.
