Liver Function Blood Test by OneDayTests

Comprehensive liver function blood test measuring liver enzymes, proteins, and bilirubin to assess liver health.

Additional Information

This test provides a comprehensive assessment of liver function by measuring key liver enzymes, proteins (like albumin and globulin), and bilirubin. Early detection of liver damage is crucial for effective treatment and disease reversal. The test helps identify potential liver issues, allowing for timely intervention and informed decisions about liver health. Results are provided rapidly, often within 1-2 days, and are accessible through a free online Health Dashboard for ongoing monitoring.

Biomarkers Tested (8)

Albumin (g/dL)

Albumin is a protein made by the liver that helps keep fluid in your bloodstream and carries various substances throughout your body. Low levels can indicate liver or kidney disease.

Globulin (g/dL)

Any of a group of simple proteins found in the blood.

Total Protein (g/dL)

A measure of all of the proteins in the plasma portion of your blood. Proteins are important building blocks of all cells and tissues - they are important for body growth and health.

Bilirubin (mg/dL)

Bilirubin is a substance produced during the normal breakdown of red blood cells. High levels can lead to jaundice and indicate liver or bile duct problems.

ALT (U/L)

Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is an enzyme mainly produced by the liver. A good indicator of liver damage caused by alcohol, drugs or hepatitis.

Alkaline phosphatase (U/L)

Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is an enzyme found in many tissues, with high concentrations in the liver, bile ducts, and bone. Elevated levels may indicate liver disease or bone disorders.

AST (U/L)

Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) is an enzyme created mainly by the liver and the heart. High levels can indicate damage to your liver caused by alcohol, drugs or hepatitis.

GGT (U/L)

Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) is a liver enzyme which can be used to diagnose alcohol abuse as it is typically raised in long term drinkers.
