Apo A1

The Apolipoprotein A1 (Apo A1) test measures the level of Apo A1, a key protein component of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. Apo A1 is crucial for lipid metabolism and is associated with cardiovascular health. Higher levels of Apo A1 are generally considered protective against cardiovascular disease.

Sample type:

Serum

Preparation:

You do not need to do anything special to prepare for the sample collection. Fasting is not required for this test.

Test type:

In person or via trained mobile phlebotomist

Symptoms or conditions analyzed by this test

The Apo A1 test helps evaluate cardiovascular risk by measuring levels of Apo A1, a critical protein in HDL cholesterol. Low levels of Apo A1 are linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular conditions such as coronary artery disease and stroke. The test is useful for assessing lipid profiles and guiding preventive or therapeutic strategies in managing cardiovascular health.
