Vitamin B5

The Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid) test measures the level of pantothenic acid in the blood. Vitamin B5 is a water-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in energy metabolism, the synthesis of coenzyme A (CoA), and the production of hormones and cholesterol. Although deficiencies are rare, this test helps assess vitamin B5 status in individuals with suspected deficiencies or metabolic disorders.
