I am looking for a laboratory that measures Lactoferrin levels - nothing
on Assayfinder.
 
One of Haematologists has a 31 year old female with a history of
tiredness and low ferritin levels. Her Hb is normal and she has some
platelet clumping. Of significance, the vast majority of her Polymorphs
are bi-lobed. He informs me that this is consistent with two conditions:
1. Pelger-Huet syndrome
2. Lactoferrin deficiency
 
Hence the request for Lactoferrin. Can anyone help please?
 
Many thanks
Avril
