Bilirubin total is 3.00 mg/dL, bilirubin direct is 1.50 mg/dL/bilirubin indirect 1.50/mg/dL ....what does this mean. Is is OK or dangerous. What is the medicine please
Indirect bilirubin is a type of bilirubin that is unconjugated, meaning it is not bound to other compounds in the liver. It is produced when red blood cells break down and is then processed by the liver to be converted into direct bilirubin for excretion. High levels of indirect bilirubin in the blood may indicate liver or gallbladder issues.
Normal values of indirect bilirubin typically range from 0.2-0.8 mg/dL, while direct bilirubin values usually fall between 0.1-0.3 mg/dL. These values may vary slightly depending on the laboratory reference range used.
82247 -BILIRUBIN; TOTAL Liver Function test , includes the total , direct and indirect bilirubin.
bilirubin (indirect vs. direct) and ammonia ....might just be overwhelmed from a hemolytic anemia....why getting a fractionated bilirubin is good....
indirect bilirubin cannot be measured in the urine. Indirect bilirubin is in the form of unconjugated bilirubin which is insoluble to water and it is non polar in nature, another is that bilirubin is binded to albumin, which result to high molecular weight that's the reason why it cannot pass to the glomeruli for the glomeruli can only pass through molecules having lower molecular weights.
The letters used to represent bilirubin count on a blood test are usually "T Bili" for total bilirubin and "D Bili" for direct bilirubin. Total bilirubin includes both direct and indirect bilirubin, while direct bilirubin specifically measures the amount that is conjugated and ready to be cleared by the liver.
Dead hepatocytes release direct bilirubin in circulation
The color tube for bilirubin direct is usually a green or dark green tube.
Total bilirubin is a measure of the bilirubin levels in the blood, which is a yellow compound produced during the breakdown of red blood cells. It consists of two fractions: unconjugated (indirect) bilirubin, which is not water-soluble and is processed by the liver, and conjugated (direct) bilirubin, which is water-soluble and excreted in bile. Elevated levels of total bilirubin can indicate liver dysfunction, bile duct obstruction, or hemolysis. Testing total bilirubin is often part of a liver function panel to assess liver health.
what is direct and indirect expense
definition direct and indirect statement
ones direct and the other is indirect..
