In blood testing
centers a blood sample is drawn from a person. The process involves
inserting a needle of a syringe in the veins that carry blood. The process is
quick and does not cause much pain or discomfort to a person apart from a prick
sensation. The lab workers take whole blood for analysis or separate the plasma
part which contain blood cells. The plasma is then examined to look for
different substances that may be present in the person’s blood. The test helps
