Autoimmune diabetes—principally type 1 diabetes and LADA (latent autoimmune diabetes in adults)—is confirmed by islet autoantibody testing alongside glycemic and β-cell function assessment. At Southern Medical Supplies Limited (SMSL), we offer a complete work-up including GAD65 (GADA), IA-2A, insulin autoantibodies (IAA), ZnT8A, and islet cell antibodies (ICA by IIF), paired with C-peptide, HbA1c, fasting/OGTT glucose, and adjunct ketone/beta-hydroxybutyrate where indicated. Our solutions span ELISA, chemiluminescent immunoassay, immunofluorescence, molecular (e.g., HLA typing when appropriate), and clinical chemistry—sourced from our broad network of trusted partners: EUROIMMUN, Ansh Labs, Randox, Streck, Bio-Rad, Abbott, Roche, Siemens Healthineers, Qiagen, bioMérieux, Cepheid, Werfen, Globe Scientific, ELGA LabWater, LW Scientific, Sebia, LTA SRL, Acrobiotech, MAKOL Innovacion Medica, Rayto Life and Analytical Sciences, Diazyme, Hardy’s Diagnostics, and Teco Diagnostics. This comprehensive menu supports early detection, differentiation from type 2 diabetes, LADA confirmation, therapy selection (including insulin initiation), and ongoing disease monitoring.
