50+ booked in last 3 daysOverview
The RBC Folate EDTA Whole Blood test is a test that measures the levels of folate in the red blood cells (RBCs). Folate, also known as vitamin B9, is important for the formation of red blood cells and the proper functioning of the nervous system.
The test is used to diagnose and monitor folate deficiency anemia, which is a condition that occurs when the body does not have enough folate. It is also used to monitor the response to folate treatment. Additionally, it is also done as a routine test in pregnant women as folate is important in the development of the baby's nervous system. It is also used to screen for certain types of cancer and other medical conditions that can affect folate levels in the blood.
An abnormal result may indicate a deficiency in folate, which can lead to a variety of symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, and anemia. It can also indicate other underlying medical conditions such as malabsorption disorders, certain types of cancer, or medications that affect folate metabolism.
