The liver blood collection home kit contains everything you need to collect blood and send it to our laboratory for analysis. Inside, you'll find lancets, instructions, lab request form, labels, tube, tube pouch, prepaid UN3373 envelope, tube holder, swabs, alcohol wipes, and plasters. No need to go to the post office; simply drop off your sample in the nearest red letterbox.
1. Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT):
- Normal Range: 7 to 56 units per L (U/L)
- ALT is an enzyme found in liver cells. Elevated ALT levels in the blood may indicate liver damage or inflammation. ALT is especially sensitive to liver conditions, making it a key marker for hepatic health.
2. Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST):
- Normal Range: 8 to 48 U/L
- Similar to ALT, AST is an enzyme present in liver cells. Elevated AST levels can suggest liver damage, but AST is also found in other organs, such as the heart and muscles, making it less specific for liver conditions.
3. Total Bilirubin:
- Normal Range: 0.3 to 1.9 milligrams per dL (mg/dL)
- Bilirubin is a yellow pigment produced during the breakdown of red blood cells. Elevated bilirubin levels can indicate liver dysfunction or issues related to the processing of bilirubin.
4. Albumin:
- Normal Range: 3.5 to 5.5 grams per dL (g/dL)
- Albumin is a protein synthesized by the liver. Decreased albumin levels may indicate liver damage or conditions affecting protein synthesis.
5. Total Protein:
- Normal Range: 6.0 to 8.3 g/dL
- Total protein measures the overall amount of proteins in the blood, including albumin and other proteins. Abnormal levels may indicate liver dysfunction or other underlying health issues.
Significance of Liver Blood Tests: Decoding Abnormal Results
-
Elevated ALT and AST:
- High levels may suggest liver damage, inflammation or hepatocellular injury. Elevated ALT is often considered more specific to liver conditions.
-
Abnormal Bilirubin Levels:
- High bilirubin levels may result from liver dysfunction or issues with the processing of bilirubin, leading to jaundice.
Common Indications for Liver Blood Tests:
-
Screening for Liver Diseases:
- Liver blood tests are often conducted as routine screenings to detect liver diseases or assess overall hepatic health.
-
Monitoring Liver Conditions:
- Individuals with known liver conditions, such as hepatitis or cirrhosis, regularly undergo liver blood tests to monitor disease progression and treatment efficacy.
-
Assessing Medication Effects:
- Certain medications can impact the liver, and regular tests help monitor potential side effects.
-
Diagnosing Symptoms:
- Symptoms like jaundice, abdominal pain, or unexplained fatigue may prompt liver blood tests to identify the underlying cause.
