Measurement of serum 25-OH vitamin D concentrations provide a good index of circulating vitamin D activity in patients not suffering from renal disease. Lower than normal 25-OH vitamin D levels can result from a dietary deficiency, poor absorption of the vitamin or impaired metabolism of the sterol in the liver. A 25-OH vitamin D deficiency can lead to bone diseases such as rickets and osteomalacia. Above normal levels can lead to hypercalcemia. This assay employs liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry to independently measure and report the two common forms of 25-hydroxy vitamin D: 25-OH D3 - the endogenous form of the vitamin and 25-OH D2 - the analog form used to treat 25-OH Vitamin D3 deficiency.
Measurement of serum 25-OH vitamin D concentrations provide a good index of circulating vitamin D activity in patients not suffering from renal disease. Vitamin D deficiency is one of the most common nutrient deficiencies. In the United States, 41.6% of the total population is deficient, although minorities worse — 82.1% and 69.2% of blacks and Hispanics are deficient,.
  • Lower than normal 25-OH vitamin D levels can result from a dietary deficiency, poor absorption of the vitamin or impaired metabolism of the sterol in the liver.
  • A 25-OH vitamin D deficiency can lead to bone diseases such as rickets and osteomalacia. 
  • Vitamin D deficiency is associated with a higher risk for heart disease, diabetes (types 1 and 2), cancer, dementia, infection, and autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis
  • Above normal levels can lead to hypercalcemia.
  • This assay employs liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry to independently measure and report the two common forms of 25-hydroxy vitamin D: 25-OH D3 - the endogenous form of the vitamin and 25-OH D2 - the analog form used to treat 25-OH Vitamin D3 deficiency.
