High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP)
Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT)
A liver-cell enzyme that can enter the blood when those cells are damaged.
Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST)
An enzyme in the liver, muscles and other tissues that can enter blood when cells are damaged.

Reviews
What people praise
Good value for the tests needed
Repeat buyers praise the price of their chosen tests, especially broader panels and less-common markers, and describe comparing bundles with custom orders to find better value.
Straightforward laboratory ordering
Buyers describe selecting a panel online and using a familiar laboratory for the draw, with successful follow-up reports of receiving results without arranging a separate doctor visit.
Things to know
- Lab orders are nonrefundable once placed.
Review your selected tests and laboratory before ordering.

Is a membership required?
No. Standalone panels can be purchased without a membership.
Can I choose the laboratory?
Available laboratory routes depend on the panel and state. Check the selected option because the included tests can differ between laboratories.
