Chemistry is when a sample of blood or body fluid is checked for the amounts of certain elements made in the body. An abnormal result may be a sign of disease. Chemistry labs include hundreds of tests. Common labs include blood sugar, cholesterol, electrolytes, calcium, liver function, thyroid, and pancreatic tests. Hematology is when a sample of blood is checked for factors in the blood and blood-forming tissues. Hematology lab results include blood cell counts and clotting tests.
