A few milliliters of urine
to decode your health
The test execution with xken health is incredibly simple. Clear instructions guide you step-by-step through the entire process - from sampling to your personal test result. In addition, you have with xken health Access to our scientific and clinical network.
An important question:
“Why urine and not blood?”
Pathological changes in the human body begin at the protein level. Proteins are transported through the body in the blood, filtered in the kidneys and excreted. These proteins, as well as their fragments, are now in the urine and can be reliably detected. A comparison of your proteome with the disease-specific protein patterns leads to your personal test result.
Proteins in the blood ware broken down by enzymes shortly after removal. The amount of information contained in the blood depends largely on how quickly the blood sample is processed. This process is difficult to control. Urine, on the other hand, is very stable as a carrier of information. When the urine leaves the bladder, the enzymes' breakdown processes have already been completed. Therefore, your urine sample can also be transported uncooled in the urine tube with the stabilizer inside.
Get your test results in seven steps

Your doctor will explain the findings to you xken health. The biochemical processes of the human body are very complex and individual. Therefore, coordinate the next steps with your treating doctor.
Do you have questions?
Why is clinical proteome analysis the key to modern medicine?
Diseases arise at the molecular level (= proteins) of the body. The biochemical processes involved in the development of diseases and their treatment take place at this level. Diseases are usually caused by changes not to a single protein, but to several proteins. The most comprehensive qualitative and quantitative assessment of proteins is necessary in order to precisely describe diseases. The current condition of the body is particularly important. This is described by its proteins. This protein level remains closed to other “omics” technologies and can only be deciphered using proteomic analysis.
