Know more about this test

The Serum Iron Studies Basic package checks the body's iron level and is available at an affordable price in Dehradun with Tata 1mg labs. Iron is an essential mineral required for producing red blood cells, developing healthy muscles, and maintaining body growth.

The Serum Iron Studies Basic package is usually done as a follow-up to an abnormal CBC test result. A low level or deficiency of iron indicates anemia, the symptoms of which include pale skin, fatigue, headaches, and weakness. On the other hand, a high level of iron may lead to hemochromatosis, which can cause organ damage, such as the liver or heart.

What does Serum Iron Studies Basic measure?

Contains 4 tests

The Serum Iron Studies Basic package measures the level of iron in the body. It comprises a series of blood tests, including a serum iron test that measures the level of iron in the blood, a Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC) test that indirectly reflects the body's iron stores, an unsaturated iron binding capacity (UIBC) test that reflects binding of iron with transferrin which is the main protein that binds with iron, and transferrin saturation test that checks how much transferrin is saturated with iron.

Transferrin Saturation

The Transferrin Saturation test determines an individual’s iron status by using the ratio of serum iron concentration and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) as a percentage. The test tells us how much iron in the blood is bound to transferrin, the main protein in the blood that binds to iron and transports it throughout the body. Under normal conditions, transferrin is one-third saturated with iron, so about two-thirds of its capacity is held in reserve. This test is often employed alongside others to evaluate iron levels and diagnose conditions like iron deficiency anemia if transferrin saturation is low or hemochromatosis (an iron overload disorder) if transferrin saturation is higher than normal.
