WHL · A closer look at haem metabolism · Urine collection
Haem is essential to haemoglobin and several other proteins.
This WHL profile measures urinary porphyrins associated with its
production, offering a detailed biochemical view for discussion
with your practitioner. Collection is non-invasive and requires
geen bloedafname.

Waarom zou je voor dit profiel kiezen?
More than a single total
Explore individual porphyrin fractions together with
totals and ratios.
Handige ophaling
Provide a first-morning or 24-hour urine collection,
as arranged with WHL.
Context for clinical review
Bring biochemical findings into a discussion of your
symptoms and history.
Wat er in je profiel staat
Porphyrin fractions:
uroporphyrins; hepta-, hexa- and pentacarboxyporphyrins;
and coproporphyrin I and III.
Totals and ratios:
total porphyrins and related ratios. Three precoproporphyrin peaks,
their total and the precoproporphyrin-to-uroporphyrin ratio are also
reported as exploratory research findings.
Voordat je gaat ophalen
Confirm with WHL whether a first-morning or 24-hour urine collection
is appropriate. Follow the kit instructions for the container,
light protection, storage and return. Tell your practitioner about
relevant medicines.
Antwoorden op uw vragen
Which urine collection should I choose?
WHL can help you confirm the collection format before sampling.
Follow the instructions for the agreed first-morning or 24-hour
collection rather than switching between methods.
How are the findings interpreted?
The pattern is reviewed alongside your medical history, medicines
and other laboratory findings. Several conditions and substances,
including liver disease, medicines and alcohol, can affect
porphyrin results.
Wanneer kan ik mijn resultaten verwachten?
Neem contact op met WHL voor de huidige verwachte doorlooptijd, inclusief monster
vervoer en verwerking, voordat er een vervolgafspraak wordt gepland.

Je resultaten gebruiken:
Porphyrin changes do not independently establish heavy-metal toxicity.
This profile does not include ALA or porphobilinogen (PBG) and does not
replace the specific testing needed for suspected acute porphyria.
