Brief Description
The iron and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) levels are influenced by changes in iron intake, absorption, storage, and release mechanisms. Such changes are indicative of a wide range of dysfunctions including anemias, nephrosis, cirrhosis and hepatitis. Iron measurements are interrelated parameters for the diagnosis of the iron status.
Colorimetric test for the quantitative determination of iron in human serum and heparinised plasma.
