Discover your P-Protein levels with our Total Protein test
P-Protein, also called total protein, is the total concentration of all proteins in plasma. It includes different types of plasma proteins that have independent biosynthesis from each other. The test gives you insight into your nutritional status and possible tissue damage.
Why should I measure P-Protein?
The analysis of P-Protein is crucial to assess nutritional status and identify potential inflammatory conditions. Elevated or decreased levels may indicate nutritional deficiencies, liver problems, inflammation, or other medical conditions.
What does increased or decreased levels of P-Protein mean?
Elevated levels may indicate nutritional deficiencies, liver problems, inflammation or other medical conditions. Decreased levels may indicate protein deficiency, malnutrition or chronic inflammatory conditions.
Reference values for Total protein
Reference values may vary between laboratories but are normally within the range of 64 - 79 g/L for adults. It is important to interpret the results in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory measurements for a complete picture of health.
