About the Serum Total Protein test

Measures total serum protein, mainly albumin and globulins. Assessment of selected liver, kidney or nutritional conditions.

Before your sample

No fasting is generally necessary. Albumin/globulin values or electrophoresis may be requested when indicated.

Understanding the result

An abnormal total protein does not identify which protein fraction is altered. Hydration can influence concentration measurements.

Clinical safety: A laboratory test is one part of clinical assessment. Do not delay urgent medical attention for chest pain, breathing difficulty, severe bleeding or serious illness.
