    What is a Intrinsic Factor Antibody (IFA) Test?

    Using state-of-the-art technology, the Factor test detects Antibody (IFA) test detects pernicious anaemia. In pernicious anaemia, the body makes antibodies that attack either the intrinsic factor (IF), a protein needed to absorb vitamin B12, or the gastric parietal cells that produce IF. As a result, there are two types of antibodies: gastric parietal cell antibodies (PCAs) and intrinsic factor antibodies (IFAs). Pernicious anaemia is the most common cause of vitamin B12 deficiency and is marked by symptoms like vitamin B12 deficiency, megaloblastic anaemia, neuropathy, and atrophic gastritis, along with the presence of intrinsic factor autoantibodies. It results from an autoimmune disease that damages the stomach lining. Initially, the parietal cells that produce IF are destroyed. Then, autoantibodies against IF block the binding sites for vitamin B12. Although, IFAs are fewer than PCAs, IFA is the specific marker for pernicious anaemia. If you live in Gurgaon and have vitamin B12 deficiency, you can book the Intrinsic Factor Antibody (IFA) test in Gurgaon to confirm if you have pernicious anaemia..

    Highest Rated Diagnostic Lab

    • Good first experience availing the services. Easy to place a request for at home sample collection. In fact the collection was scheduled in no time, which I really appreciate because it was a RTPCR where time is of essence. The phlebotomist arrived on time despite a heavy rain. He was courteous and quite skilled. The report came on time too. The status updates were easily available. Customer care was prompt and helpful. Based on my first experience, I recommend Orange Health.

    • I found Orange Health Labs while searching for a comprehensive allergy test. They offer the best price for this test among all the online pharmacies. None of 1mg, Netmeds, PharmEasy or Max have the option of a complete allergy test (236 allergens) at Rs 5000. So this is a huge bonus for common people like me. The sample collection staff was so good at their job, I didn't even feel when the needle was inserted and when the test was done also. Super polite customer service, digital payment, deep discount on allergy tests make this a highly recommended service. I had a marvelous experience with them.
