Biochip Kits - Thyroid Arrays

The thyroid gland produces hormones that control the rate of metabolism and also affect the development and function of many other bodily functions. The two most common thyroid disorders are hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) and hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid). Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) is used to screen for and monitor hyper and hypothyroidism. The measurement of thyroxine (T4) and tri-iodothyronine (T3) will determine if thyroid hormones are being produced proportionally to demand. Randox Thyroid Arrays enable the simultaneous determination of thyroid hormones in a single patient sample providing a more complete profile.
