Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide is an antibody found to be present in individuals with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Measuring its levels helps in detecting as well as assessing the severity of RA. This test is available at an affordable price with home collection services.
Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (CCP) is a blood test that screens for antibodies that attack healthy cells. It’s a common diagnostic tool for rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
What is it used for?
To diagnose or rule out RA
To predict the severity of RA
To monitor patients with inflammatory polyarthritis (IP)
What are the symptoms of RA?
Joint pain, especially in the morning
Joint stiffness
Joint swelling
Fatigue
Low-grade fever
What are the results of the test?
Negative: Less than 20 EU/mL
Weakly positive: 20–39 EU/mL
Moderately positive: 40–59 EU/mL
Strongly positive: More than 59 EU/mL
What else can cause a positive result? Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), Familial Mediterranean fever, Behçet’s disease, and Psoriatic arthritis.

An anti-thyroglobulin antibody test measures the amount of antibodies in the blood that target the thyroglobulin protein. This test can help detect thyroid problems.
What is thyroglobulin?
Thyroglobulin is a protein produced by the thyroid gland.
It helps make the thyroid hormones thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3).
A small amount of thyroglobulin leaks into the bloodstream.
Why is the test done?
The test can help detect thyroid problems like thyroiditis, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, and Grave’s disease.
It can also help monitor patients with thyroid cancer.
What can the test results mean?
High levels of thyroglobulin antibodies can indicate thyroid damage, an autoimmune condition, or thyroid cancer.
Declining levels may indicate reduced tumor burden or the absence of disease.
How is the test performed?
A healthcare professional draws blood from a vein in your arm.
The blood sample is then sent to a lab for analysis.

The analysis of 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) is 1 of the 3 analytes along with Cortisol and Androstenedione that constitutes the best screening test for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH), caused by either 11- or 21-hydroxylase deficiency. Analysis for 17-OHP is also useful as part of a battery of tests to evaluate females with hirsutism or infertility; both can result from adult-onset CAH.
