LIQUIXX Bilirubin (TOTAL & DIRECT) 4 x 60 ml

Bilirubin

Bilirubin is a breakdown product of hemoglobin (Hb) formed primarily within the reticuloendothelial system. It is transported through the bloodstream bound to albumin and carried to the liver, where it undergoes further processing and elimination.

Clinical Significance

• Bilirubin testing helps assess liver function and bilirubin metabolism.

• Abnormal bilirubin levels may be associated with liver disorders, bile duct obstruction, or increased breakdown of red blood cells.

• Measurement of bilirubin is commonly included as part of liver function evaluation.
