Brief Description
Ferritin is the main iron storage protein in the body. Ferritin is found at low concentrations in serum and is directly proportional to the body’s iron store. In general, variations in total body iron stores are reflected in the ferritin level in serum. Measurement of ferritin may aid in the diagnosis of iron deficiency anemia and hemochromatosis (iron overload).
Latex enhanced immunoturbidimetric test for the quantitative determination of ferritin in human serum und plasma.
