What we measure

The biomarkers in this panel.

Higher levels can be a sign your liver is under stress, often linked to diet, alcohol, or fatty liver.

Liver health

Aspartate Aminotransferase

Another liver health marker.

Why it matters

Read alongside ALT, it gives extra insight into how your liver and muscles are coping.

Liver health

Gamma-Glutamyltransferase

A liver marker (often called GGT).

Why it matters

Often raised by alcohol or fatty liver — a useful check-in on lifestyle impact.

Liver health

Total Bilirubin

A waste product the liver clears from your blood.

Why it matters

Higher levels can be a sign your liver isn't clearing things as efficiently as usual.

Is this panel right for me?

Who this panel is built for.

Who this is for

  • Adults wanting a yearly check on the core markers most often used in routine health monitoring.
  • People who are generally well but want a baseline of their own numbers.
  • Anyone starting a new lifestyle, training or nutrition plan and wanting before-and-after data.
  • Those who have not had a full screen in 12 months and want a fresh snapshot.

Consider speaking to a clinician first

  • Anyone with persistent unexplained symptoms. Speak to your GP before taking a self-funded test.
  • People currently being investigated for a specific condition. Your clinician may want particular tests in a specific order.
  • Children under 18 (we test adults only).
  • Anyone needing rapid same-day results. Turnaround is typically 3 to 5 working days.

This panel reports biomarker data. It does not diagnose any condition. Your results should be reviewed alongside the advice of your GP or another qualified healthcare professional.

FAQs

Common questions.

How long do Standard Screen results take?

Standard Screen results are typically delivered within 2 working days of the laboratory receiving your sample. You receive a plain English PDF report by email showing each biomarker, the lab reference range, and a short explanation of what each marker measures.

How is the sample collected for the Standard Screen?

The Standard Screen requires a venous blood draw at a Chxhealth or partner clinic. The phlebotomy fee is included in the price. Choose our Lanchester clinic or one of our 50+ UK partner and pop-up clinics when you book.

Who should consider the Standard Screen?

The Standard Screen is one of our most popular starting points. It suits anyone who wants a broad picture of liver, kidney, lipid, glucose and inflammation markers in a single panel, whether for general wellbeing tracking, after a lifestyle change, or as a baseline before more targeted testing.

How is the Standard Screen different from the Basic Screen?

The Basic Screen is a lighter introductory panel covering the core biomarker categories. The Standard Screen adds more markers across the same systems for a fuller view. If you have already tested before or want a deeper check, Standard Screen Plus adds further markers including some hormonal and nutritional indicators.

How often should I retake the Standard Screen?

If you are tracking the effect of a lifestyle change, retest every 3 to 6 months. For general wellbeing, an annual baseline is sensible. Always allow recovery time after illness or strenuous training before testing.
