What do we test for?

Lp-PLA2 (PLAC)

Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 is an enzyme linked to inflammation of blood vessel walls. Measuring Lp-PLA2 levels helps predict cardiovascular risk, including heart disease and stroke.

How will this help you?

What is the Lp-PLA2 (PLAC) Test?

The Lp-PLA2 (PLAC) Test measures levels of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 in the blood to evaluate inflammation in arterial walls and gauge cardiovascular risk. This biochemistry marker is an independent predictor of heart disease and stroke.

What’s included in this at-home blood test kit?

Who should consider at-home Lp-PLA2 testing?

This home blood testing kit is suited for adults concerned about heart health, those with elevated cholesterol or a family history of cardiovascular disease, and anyone seeking deeper insight beyond standard lipid panels.

How is the sample collected?

Using the TDL Tiny microcollection system, collect a few drops of capillary blood from your fingertip. Follow the enclosed guide, label your sample, and mail it back to our UK-accredited lab. It’s one of the simplest at-home blood tests you can do.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the Lp-PLA2 at-home blood test kit?

The home Lp-PLA2 (PLAC) blood test kit from Mayfield Clinic uses an FDA-approved assay to measure Lp-PLA2 levels. When collected and processed correctly, it delivers clinical-grade accuracy comparable to in-clinic venous draws.

How do I collect my blood sample with the TDL Tiny kit?

Simply follow the step-by-step instructions included with your TDL Tiny kit: cleanse the finger, use the lancet to collect the small-volume blood sample into the microtube, seal, label and mail it back in the prepaid envelope.

What do my Lp-PLA2 results mean?

Your Lp-PLA2 result is reported in ng/mL. Normal ranges vary by age and gender, but higher readings suggest increased vascular inflammation and a greater cardiovascular risk profile. A GP consultation can help interpret your exact value.

Who should consider the Lp-PLA2 cardiovascular risk blood test?

This at-home cardiovascular risk test is ideal for adults with a family history of heart disease, high cholesterol, or unexplained inflammation. It can complement routine lipid panels to give deeper insight into plaque-related risk.

How long does it take to get results from my at-home Lp-PLA2 blood test?

Once your sample reaches our lab, you’ll receive results within 3–5 business days. You can view them securely online, and if you’ve opted for a GP follow-up appointment, discuss your report in person or via video call.
