Summary

This study looks at how taking biotin (vitamin B7) supplements can interfere with certain blood tests. Researchers will give 24 healthy adults either a single dose of biotin (10 mg or 100 mg) or a placebo, then take blood samples over several hours to see how test results change. The goal is to understand when the interference is strongest and how long it lasts.
