Zinc Intracellular Test - More Information
The zinc RBC test, also known as an intracellular zinc lab test and a zinc RBC blood test, measures intracellular zinc blood levels.
Zinc RBC testing is a useful way to measure the zinc levels inside RBC cells. In contrast to the zinc blood test which measures blood zinc levels at a point in time, the zinc RBC test helps evaluate longer term zinc stores in the body.
To get a zinc RBC test near you, order online and get your blood drawn at the selected Quest Diagnostics lab. Once the zinc RBC lab report is ready, it will be available for download. No fasting is recommended before this intracellular zinc test. As can be seen on the zinc RBC sample lab report above, the zinc RBC blood levels are reported as a number which can be compared against the reference range provided by the lab.
This zinc RBC lab test is a component of the mineral blood test panel.
