About This Test
Apolipoprotein B (Apo B) is the major protein component of atherogenic lipoproteins, including Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL), Very Low-Density Lipoprotein (VLDL), and Intermediate-Density Lipoprotein (IDL).
Each atherogenic particle contains one molecule of Apo B, making Apo B a direct measure of the total number of LDL/VLDL particles — the true drivers of atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease (CAD).

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What tests are done in Clinical Biochemistry?
These tests measure things like blood sugar, liver function, kidney function, cholesterol, electrolytes and Apo B.
2. Do I need to report fasting?before these tests?
Yes, Fasting is required.
3. How soon will I get my reports?
Mon-Sat, sample before 4pm, report same day and sunday reports, next day.
4. Are biochemistry tests reliable?
Yes. We use fully automated machines that ensure accurate and consistent results.
5. Can these tests detect early health problems?
Apo B (Apolipoprotein B) testing helps detect early health problems by measuring the number of atherogenic (“bad”) cholesterol particles.
TAT Policy
The Turnaround Time (TAT) depends on the following factors:
- Registration date and time
- Type of scan or test
- Scan time or sample collection time
In uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to test complexity or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed of the estimated TAT at the time of registration.
